It took me a minute to get past the over use of 60s slang, but when I got into the emotional scenes with Web and Johnathan, I wouldn't escape the book's pull. I just wanted Web and Johnathan to be happy!!!
This book made me cry, a lot. I felt big emotions while reading it. There were also scenes that felt just like a David Bowie song.
I really, really loved it.
