I read this when I was very young so it holds a special place in my heart. I'd say it's my all time favorite book. There mystery keeps things moving. Watching a character try to adapt to a whole new culture setting gives you a lot to think about. The romance is surprisingly emotional. There are a lot of layers which make it a great book to re-read.
