I decided to start reading from the end of the alphabet, and am truly happy I did so. This story (written way back in 2003-2004!) is absolutely wonderful. It's a gentle tale, written quite beautifully. One of the later chapters includes perhaps the most perfect description of love I've read.

On the challenging side, there are some sport scenes that are a bit tough to understand. They play a game like baseball, what with bats and balls, but it includes a hat trick, which surely must be hockey. Perhaps they were playing baseball on ice! What fun! Wink

Enjoy.
