Listened to the audiobook, which is only an hour and a half long.  I've been going through a massive reading slump for the last few months, and listening to this has really helped. Read this first when I was in school, and I really enjoyed it this second time. I found it to be a really endearing story, with so many heartwarming and funny moments. For such a short novel, Keegan really uses the small word count to say a lot.
