This story is magical realism and fairy tale like, and the chapters fly by. I love how the chapters from all the different perspectives flesh out the world and reveal the story. Hunter Yee and Luna Chang's family despise each other, for reasons the kids don't entirely understand (and are eventually revealed through the parental view chapters). The two are drawn to each other and don't entirely understand why. All is revealed through time. I didn't want to stop reading. An excellent book.
