This book made me cry a little bit! Black writes a book that is compulsively readable for all its main character is precisely the type of person I would not want to meet in real life. He has a knack for fleshing out difficult characters and the relationships they form. 
I do agree with some reviews I read that his growth at times can feel a little too straightforward, but I also don’t think it really pulled me out of the story.
