This review contains spoilers.

A heartbreaking romance that put me in tears. I was reading it in class, and I burst into a sob in front of everyone. It's so interesting that you get sucked into it and just can't stop reading. Despite the tragedy, it warmed my heart to read of Callum's sacrifice, and if i lost my memory, this book would be the first for me to read! It's what got me into the romance genre in the first place, and if i had never read it, i doubt i would ever pick up a book, so for that, I have no negative comments.

Ik heb het boek gelezen voor een uni opdracht en het was best lastig om er eerst in te komen. Maar dit boek heeft me wel geraakt. Voornamelijk over kolonialisme en racisme. Een paar kleine details waren niet echt mijn ding, maar overall vond ik het een goed boek.
