TheLadyOfWorlds (18 KP) rated Overdrawn in Books

"But now he knew the truth. Now he knew that joy isn’t measured by its duration, but by its intensity."
I don't often five star books, they have to be something really special for me to do that, but if I could sum this book up in one quote, it would be this one.
I laughed, I got far too attached to the characters and way to invested in their stories and by the end, I was in tears.
This book is funny, heartwarming, heartbreaking and, for someone living with several chronic illnesses that feels a little too much like this could become reality--sometimes too close to home.
The ending is bittersweet and although I saw it coming, I couldn't stop myself bawling when it happened.
This will stay with me for a while.
