This book was beautifully written, and I truly felt like I was transported into a very real world with very real characters. It made me laugh, it made me tense, it made me cry, it guided me, heartwrenchingly, through the whole spectrum of human emotion. Refreshingly, characters weren't perfect, or likeable all the time -- but they were honest. They were human. 
I am very conservative with my book ratings, and this is the highest I have ever rated a book, to date -- because I cannot think of any other books that felt quite as honest, and as human, as this one.
