Wow, I don't know where to begin. It's a stunningly beautiful, painful piece of literature. It hurt to read, but I was utterly engrossed the entire way through. I sank into the mystery of the book quickly, enthralled until the end. The twist ending made me want to pick up the book and immediately read it all over again. I cannot recommend this book enough. It undoubtedly lives up to the hype!
