There is something so gentle and peaceful about this story, the way it takes you along the life of three people who've become family. It's slow and meandering, but not in a dull sense. It feels like it's teaching you how to romanticize life, and all the little things that people forget to stop and appreciate. Most of the math went over my head, but since I can only imagine the housekeeper and Root felt much the same, it doesn't seem to really matter. I was certainly hoping and wishing for a happier ending, but the way it went felt true.
