Purchased from a fellow Pango seller, excellent condition : no rips, tears, stains, etc. Pristine jacket cover. Most novels I can genuinely say I can not put down — this one I had to put down to step away from before going back. It’s a short novel but emotionally drained me. It’s gut wrenching on several levels and since it’s so short (170 pages) it happens all at once if you’re a fast reader.
