This really lived up to the hype. I loved the writing and the multiple character focuses were so well incorporated. The way the paragraphs were broken up worked so well for me. The story itself is just phenomenal and how everything intertwines. Although this has some harder content, it always seemed to be countered with the most compassionate, warm, and often times kick-ass followup. This is also the perfect book for anyone who loves food and/or music.
