I tried my best not to spoil anything and I guess I made it =D Well, this is definetly one of the stories I was most excited about. Aaron is a smart kid, that lives 24 hours of the day inside home. His super protective mother just cannot even think about Aaron going out, or the bullies, the flu and the neibour's dog will get him. That's when you start thinking that your mum is not so bad. But of course, this is a fantasy book, and a really exciting one. Things would not stay this boring for long. When I first began reading, I really did not expect that much. It begins normal, then strange things happen, a revelation comes out, and everything was pretty nice. The characters were cute and all. I must say I kept on going for curiosity. But then things really begin to happen. And you really do not understand anything that is going on, just like the main charecter, and you start to know things just like he does. All RTE world comes to you slowly and that makes you feel exactly how Aaron feels. And that is why the story is so well built. The description of the world, the situation, the characters, the feelings is so well done that is possible to really feel what they feel. Once you keep reading you realise that everything that is happening so far is for introduction and understanding of RTE's reality, and you get more involved the more you read. That is so, because (just as I said I kept on going for curiosity) the story tells on your face that there is much more beyond, but it won't tell right away. It will keep the information and the drama until the right moment. And that's when your heart breaks apart. Because that is what SF Mazhar is really great at. Breaking hearts. You get so involved that when the story shows how things really are, your bealtiful world of happiness falls and you have to collect the pieces of your heart that was so brutally riped. I guess that shows my impressions of this story. When I finished it, I couldn't wait to go to the second book. And I am still trembling and waiting for the third =D

I have read this book many times since i first bought it and i never seem to lose interest, always engaged, wondering what's going to happen next... This book has everything you need: bromance like no other, epic tragic love 😉, and heartache! Follow Aaron in his quest to learn the truth! It's TRULY WORTH IT!
