Overrated. People in general make a big hype of this book. It was good but it wasn't that good.
The ending was shit. Did they die? Did they go back? Who knows. Overall ok though.

This was one of the first books I felt like I truly devoured. I read it for the first time in my 6th grade English class.

This book changes the way you think and is beautiful. I hope to re-read it again.
