I know that this book is fantastic, someone out there is going to absolutely love and adore this book. It had genuinely great writing and a great plot. It was sad, it was moving, it also wasn't for me. This book used a spiritual fantasy aspect that I couldn't get behind, personally. Not that it was bad, AT ALL, it just wasn't my cup of tea. I liked the more realistic parts, and then when the spirit came into play, I would lose interest.
