I got this through goodreads giveaways! Thanks!
I liked this book. Something about the imagery, especially on the island, was really beautiful. That's what I keep thinking about when I think about this book--all the scenery. Secondary really is the characters, my favorite, personally is Kristian. I really enjoyed the relationships between Finn, his mother, and Linda. Finn's fierce protectiveness of her yet his avoidance is so relate-able and familiar.
I recommend it for readers who like coming of age fiction!
