I've read many books and this is one book that I think will stick with me for a long time. While heart-wrenching and terribly disturbing at times, I could not put it down. The story is so well told that it is hard to believe it is a work of fiction. I think its very hard to tell such a sad story and have your audience enjoy it. I was so invested in the characters that the ending of this book actually brought me to tears, even though the ending was clear from the beginning. Overall, one of the most well-written and unique books I have read in a long while.
