This is one of the most moving books I'll ever read. It's masterfully poignant. It changes your perspective and tackles so many aspects of life and humanity. Please read this book. It's a masterpiece. Should be required reading.

"I don't know what's worse: to not know what you are and be happy, or to become what you've always wanted to be, and feel alone."
