On the Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta

5.0

This book - whoa. I could have read it in one setting if not for mid-terms coming up and all. At first, it may be hard to understand exactly what's going on, but what's so amazing is that you really won't care. You'll be caught up in the writing (which is incredible) and the characters (all of whom are compelling and sometimes funny and sometimes heartbreaking). You'll keep reading just because you can't stop. Then you'll start putting together the pieces and understanding some things and having eureka moments at random intervals. This book is so great, it immediately made it's way to my favorites. Romantic and tragic and a whirlwind of a novel, you NEED to read this one.
