ספר די קשה, יש בו המון טריגרים. מצד שני הוא כתוב בצורה ככ יפה והוא מדבר על דברים חשובים ועמוקים. התחברתי מאוד לדמויות וזה ספר חובה בעיניי

One of the most compelling, beautifully written, intense books I've read in a long time. I cried many times, both because of the goodness and the incredibly bad things. Maybe I loved it most because it's the most beautiful story about true friendship and the immense love friends can have for each other.
