Superbly written story. The descriptive language used to paint the setting is magical, amazing, and vivid. The cast is large and can be confusing, but the author manages to set the characters apart by giving them unique voices and strong characterization. The tone is direct, conversational, and non-judgemental. Reading this book was a pleasure.

I absolutely love this book, but I was a little disgusted with myself when I finished it. I became more aware how my small actions are making huge consequences to others.
