I gotta say that this book brought me back into my book reading phase. I've came across some snippets of the movie every once in a while and decided to finally go ahead and read it. My expectations where very high, once because I really wanted to start reading again and knew if this book disappointed I wouldn't start again and because the snippets already gave me a rough idea that I was interested in. To say at least, the book and story definitely didn't disappoint and it will always be in my top three of my favorite books, because despite everything it made a very big impact on me and I also read it during my first holiday alone and the book will always be connected to the incredible memorys I made.

When I say that this is my favourite book. I mean it. I recommend is book to anyone no matter if they read or not. Yes it does deal with dark topics like gang violence and murder but it also has light topics like brotherly love and loyalty to friends. I have become attached to these characters and really think that everyone should read this at least once in their life.
