A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara
5.0

A book that is ostensibly about 4 college friends as they grow up and older facing life's challenges....but it's truly about one them. His early life is remarkably trying and horrific, and he struggles to cope with his history for the rest of his life.

This is the first novel to make me cry since A Prayer for Owen Meany; the novelist may take that as a compliment....not many novels move me to that extent.
