5.0

This book is incredible. From beginning to end the book keeps you captivated. The intertwined stories, and independent stories, of Marie-Laure, Werner, Fredrick, Etienne, Daniel and many more characters are as moving as it gets. The final 150 (or so) pages will make it hard to put this book down. The ending of this book is especially moving, romantic, inspiring and hopeful. This tops off an incredibly constructed plot and culminates the tremendous character development that this book has to offer. 

If you have not already done so, give this a read. You will not regret it!
