This is the first book that I read that was classified as a “classic” and I can totally see why it’s seen as such. The story is short but mighty. There’s so much going on in so little time I couldn’t stop thinking about it for days. The ending tore me apart. This is the only book that I’ve ever read more than once, and every single time it’s five stars in my heart.
