I'm not a give-5-stars-kind of reviewer, but this one, this gets five stars! This was the kind of book that as the climax approached, I delayed reading because I didn't want this to come to an end.
I have a grammatical pet peeve in that the author overused simile like a fish uses water in the early part of the book, but the beauty of story, the power of the characters, and acknowledgment of that this is probably a firmly me-problem, means the 5th star stays!
