I was feeling really good after reading the book.  The book has very unusual and untypical artwork for me.  Which is really beautiful.  The story is also very unique, and I enjoyed it very much.

(Finally!) read this in full for the first time in preparation for the movie, and I loved every second of it! Super fast-paced and funny, but also sweet and emotional with characters I really loved, and overall it was just a fun, heartfelt read.
