Gayle Foreman is an author who is known for being able to break your heart through her writing.
The cover didn't initially draw me in and neither did the actual synopsis but the book is so much more than the cover and the synopsis. I urge you to pick it up and see for yourself.
Harun, Freya, and Nathaniel are all exceptional characters that will definitely be imprinted on my mind for awhile to come.
I love the fact that this book is written over the course of a day because you don't see many books do that. Some of them manage to feel too rushed or make you say "There's no way all that happened in one day" but Foreman has always managed to make that writing style work for her.
The story is told through flashbacks and what happens throughout the day that the three kids meet one another. It's a bittersweet and sad book that I think I may pick up again!
