Where should I start?
This book is full of emotions. I felt all kind of emotions, from sadness to happiness, from feeling injustice to justice, since anger to calmness... This book makes you feel things, remembering how much human you actually are.
Plus, it has friendship as one of the main topics: what can a friendship do for you? To what extent can a friendship change the way you percieve the world around you?
Besides, I really like the commentary on what it is to be a "normal person" nowadays.
This book will be forever in my heart. I don't remember reading a book as enthusiastically as I read this one.
I recommend this book to everyone.
