i think a five star rating would be most fit for this series as a whole but nonetheless this was a great, gripping, and unique experience with the most beautiful illustrations i've ever seen; a great first read

a beautiful story about destiny; i could not connect to some of the themes in this book but overall it tells profound lessons about life.

relatively unmemorable book that left an unappetizing taste of young adult novels in my mouth (not sure what that analogy is)

read these all except drama in my younger and more vulnerable years except for drama

i remember some more than others but these have a special place in my heart, sisters especially. idk just great reads and i forgot to log them. sisters is actually the goat

read this some time during elementary school. i think it was required. it was alright i think, but my only core memory of it was reading it in the backseat of my dads little truck. it is now my little truck. this book is very peculiar. i remember being cold while reading it.

shoutout to mr gufford for opening our eyes to such an incredible novel, made only better with the insane literary analysis that he guided us through

and this was depressing

solid book with very practical and important takeaways; some case studies were a bit stretched perhaps but overall very fascinating book; we did it, we thought again
