I enjoyed watching Dave take Nicholas on a search for a special butterfly, and I loved the descriptions of the land and the butterflies. Unfortunately, I assumed it would serve as the backdrop for the development of a romantic relationship, but instead it was the stronger focus for the entire story....

4.4 stars"You matter to me. If not to the sky..." (Chapter 3)The story makes me feel oddly nostalgic; which is weird because I have never been to Australia or experience the hunting for butterflies. But there is something from the story that transcends the words and the pages, and reaches out to me,...
4.5 starsA lovely, quiet, feel-good story that came along at just the right time for me.
