Enchanting, exquisite and full of emotions

I haven't finish reading this book but I feel I should write this review now. It is one of those 'I can't wait to know the ending but I don't want this story to end' books. Lesley Downer is an excellent storyteller and writer. As I read this book, I can picture Sachi in my mind. Her every move and her emotionals are mine to feel. An exquisite and beautiful story.
