I've listened to this audiobook so many times, and I think I just love it more every time. It's funny, it's sad, it's touching. I love the setting in New York during the Vietnam War and seeing those complicated issues through the lens of a kid's eyes. It's a mostly lighthearted story that will sucker punch you with emotions when you least expect it.
