This book hurt me bad. I cried like a freaking baby once again reading Hannah's work. I'm not going to lie and say I had a great time reading this book, but it was beautifully written. It put me in a dark head space and thank God for the audiobook because that's the only way I was able to finish after reading about 60% physically and then having to put down for about a month to finally finish. It was a whole lot of heartbreak and pain, yet somehow found the beauty. I guess in a way, that's how Alaska is.
