I liked this book, but despite really really wanting to, I did not love it. Most of the characters were likable enough and the story line was realistic, but I had a hard time believing the authenticity of Augustus. He was too abstract and rigid.

This was a quick read, but was somewhat depressing (it does deal with children dying of cancer after all) and heavy. It did however, illustrate very well that true love knows no age or limits. I'm glad to have read it.
