TJ Klune has done it again.  Another beautiful book full of love and wonder.  I chortled away at this book and then found myself in tears.  He has the ability to create the most loveable characters out of flawed individuals.  A gift for reaching in and touching your heart, and carefully cradling it with a story. This is a kind of re-imagining of Pinocchio in the future, examining what it is to be human and what it means to evolve.  Absolutely gorgeous.
