Hot off the heels of reading an extremely heavy-going book, I was strongly hoping it was a good book that I had picked up. Good does not do it justice in the slightest. 

The plot was wonderful, it kept me engaged throughout the entire duration of the story. I wasn't sure if all that could have happened within a day in parts, but I was willing forgive that for the characters. Wholeheartedly. 

The writing flowed well, and reminded me time and time again that you do not need to write five-page descriptions of someone hailing a cab, over and over and over again throughout a book to make it a masterpiece. 

Well done, Nicola Yoon. You have become an inspiration to me.
