### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plot
*by P***H on 17 January 2026*

Perfect book specially when you are thinking to give up on something. It helps you understand to keep moving on in life no matter what and at the end everything falls into place. It also gives up a glance of how everything happens for a reason is a truth. It becomes a little boring in middle but if you dont leave it there , you will surely enjoy the ending.
