monigamino's review against another edition

5.0

-"This was the first time the world outside of her books had ever rivaled the stories with its very own plot twist."
-"When your sample size is the entire world, you're bound to find annecdotes that support any theory."
-"It's possible to regret something, or at least wonder about something, while still knowing it was the right choice."
-"We don't just march because we hope it will trigger change. We march to remind them of our numbers. To remind them that they can't forget about us."

This book made me think. It is fast paced but there are a couple of slow spots but still moves easily. I am still thinking about this book! What would I do and how would I treat others? Very profound.
