Incredible read. I can’t remember the last time I read a book that felt so easy to read, that I felt so at home reading that I always had it on my mind. Really beautiful and poignant and real. It felt like I was there with this kid and the end note with the “extra letter” had tears dripping down my face instantly. Absolutely beautiful book

Shamefully I saw the movie before I read this book, but, this book is wonderful! it's deep and emotional but also teaches you to take a step back and appreciate what you have in life and what truly makes you happy. it's a great coming of age story that is true to the human experience.

There are alot of heavy topics but I feel they are carried out with grace and the author does a good job easing you into it instead of just springing it onto the reader.
