REVIEW:

It is a tragic story that has character death. But it does not end there. It continues to show how those close to one who died grieved and suffered from the loss but it still has a somewhat happy open-ending? I would say that it was a very unique plot based on what I have read so far. I don't think I have the opportunity to read this kind of story.

For the story itself, it was a really great story. It was definitely one of my favorites and recommended reads here in Wattpad. I'm not really sure about this part since I've some days on reviewing this due to being busy with other things, but I think there are a few misused words but I don't think I came across grammatical error. This is I am rating it a nine out of ten and definitely most on instinct. But I must say that it is still commendable for the Author if what His/Her location say is accurate (India) since it is not His/Her native language.

It also does not follow the original story starting from the end of their fifth year but He/She briefly explained on what she has changed in the story. There are also not much magic involved more on the emotional struggle and building relationship between the two main characters. It also contain interacting within the two's circle of friends or families. I must also say that the Author got the personalities of the characters quite on point.

So overall, it is a rare find and is a great one at that. I definitely recommend it to be read!
