this book belongs because…
rune and poppy have stolen my heart and gave me a piece back that i missed and a whole story i never got to have.

this book is exceptional. and i don’t say that often or throw that out there lightly. i don’t care what sort of romance you like. if my heart had to endure this, so does yours.

young love, cherry blossoms, a jar of paper hearts, and loving someone with your whole chest.
