- murderofcrowesRoyal Road★★★★★ 5.0A beautiful coming of age story about finding peace in the darkness. Sara's depression is highly relatable and her journey to the light isn't cut and dry like many others. This story tells the journey of a unlikely friendship that turns into a forbidden love.
Although each character isn't as fleshed out as Freyja and Sara, I don't think it makes the story any less bad. You can feel the relationship Sara already has with her brother and new family.
I found the metaphor to be perticulary intriguing. I think the most interesting was Sara's cigeratte. It took me a while to understand what it meant. There were quite a few more that I won't get into detail but they're quite clever.
Overall, This story is highly emotional, I found myself crying more than I thought. Towards the end there is a lesson that I think everyone should know about and live by. It's touching and amazing and I recommend a read. - God_is_GoodRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5This is the story of a fight for happiness, a fight to live beyond her depression and find joy beyond belief. It's a touching story, a sad story that made me cry multiple times, but it really did touch me in a way that I never could have expected. I found myself taken on a journey of friendship and love, a story brimming with emotion and meaning. I think that all of us can learn from this story, and all of us can be touched by it.
Give this a try. You won't regret it. - NecroauraRoyal Road★★★★★ 4.5Really loved the story with the deep emotions the story gave you.
Also good grammar with good spacing, which makes the story even more enjoyable
