İç içe geçmiş birden fazla duygu yaşattı. Resmen bir dizi/film tadındaydı. Hiç böyle bir kitap beklemiyordum. Özellikle kitabın ortalarına doğru uzatıldığını bile düşündüm. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Nasıl böyle düşündüm?! Kendime hakaret etmek istiyorum! Seneler sonra bile böyle güzel bir kitabı unutacağımı zannetmiyorum. Öyle noktalar vardı ki gözlerim dolu dolu okudum. İçime dokundu. Şuralarda bir yere ... Bu nasıl bir yazar? Ağlatmıyor da! Ağlasam belki geçer diyeceğim ama ağlayacağım derecede bir kitap olmamasına rağmen nasıl bu kadar etkilendim?! 😞 Her ne kadar kitapta bize anlatılan iki kişinin hayatı gibi gözükse de inanın bana hiç öyle değildi. Özellikle babaları.. eğer doğru düşünüyorsam... söyleyecek sözüm yok sana. Nasıl güzel bir insansın sen. Peki ya ülkeler? Öyle güzel anlatmış ki! Ah resmen oradasınız! 🌠I rarely shed a tear when reading novels, but confess this is one book that had me sobbing at the end. I think the culmination of this much-loved series coming to a close, the passing of the author before the end and the final parting scene which had all the feels got me!
