 I thoroughly loved this one, it is such a beautiful story and so beautifully written. There are so many important issues raised and discussed in a manner that makes it easy for anybody to understand the full concept of what they are reading. This book brought literal tears to my eyes and I wish I could read it for the first time again. I really felt like I could relate to some of the characters and their feelings.
