I don't normally choose love stories but this is not your average romance and I would recommend it a million times over again. It is so beautifully written. It's not only a love story between a man and a woman, but between Haiti and its people, between friends and strangers, an old man and a young man who find strength in each other. This book truly conveys what it means to love your neighbor, how true love is supposed to be, how to persevere amid the worst of circumstances, and so much more. READ THIS BOOK!!!
