So good, so important. You get to see inside all of the Lee’s minds, without the book becoming overly complicated or disorienting. Beautifully written, not too slow or fast. I just kind of wish it hadn’t ended.

Edit after reading through other reviews (because I tend to forget how I feel about a book very quickly); I do agree that the characters were a little exaggerated and unrealistic, but I guess my own fantasy made up for that. It’s easier to do so when you can relate to the characters a little, I guess.
