Ratings and reviews

There were moments of literary genius in this book. Dare I say that I've never read another book that captures and describes an all encompassing first love so accurately. But having to endure the boring narrative in-between all that brilliance was too much. And what was up with that ending?

Moving read. But only a complete and utter moron would think this is good for kids.

Best novel ever for the young to read this books,
