Not always easy or fun to read, but essential. If I were a dictator anyone turning 15 should have to read this and then again when you're 35 so you can really understand its relevance.

I can't believe it took me so long to read. Would have appreciated it more if I were Cameron's age, but it's still plain to see that Blackman is a literary genius. This book is beautiful.

Read this in a day, which I rarely feel compelled to do even though I am a big reader.
Beautifully written and a great story of self discovery.

Great story and very unexpected. Has that weird, but magical feel that we loved from How I Live Now.
A great writer.

Loved this as a teenager. Very sweet story.
