Audiobook - 4 hours 12 minutes - This book was phenomenal. I loved every second I was listening to it: in fact, it is the fastest I have ever read an audiobook in my life. The characters felt so real, and the struggles of Charlie were articulated so well, in a way that was believable but also reflective. It was heart-breaking and emotional, but this was balanced well with 'unintentional' humour and snippets of teenage life. A brilliant read.
