This was so good - just a really enjoyable book! Dramatic and ridiculous adventure, delicious romance with tension drawn out over the whole book via some faintly ludicrous and catastrophic misunderstandings, a good amount of angst but enjoyable angst rather than traumatic because it's the kind of writing where you feel secure that everything is going to turn out alright in the end, and some great characters and character development - the main character is a bit of an idiotic arsehole but you know he's had a rough go of it and very quickly you realise he's got a heart of gold so start really rooting for him. Highly recommend this as a fun pick-me-up kind of read.

The writing is absolutely PHENOMENAL and so freaky funny. It's also heart reaching, but you can always kinda see it coming. It's technically a long book but something you could get through in a couple of days. 


<Spoiler>It also talks about a lot of interesting topics that were seen as taboo (although some of them aren't brought to a whole lot of detail considering the whole book is told from the perspective of a traumatized white teen boy who's an Earls son... But he slowly starts to learn, grow, and mature as he keeps ALMOST DYING.
