Customer Reviews

One of my favorite books in middle school!

I first read this book when I was in about 8th grade an absolutely fell in love with it. I loved the way the author wrote the story and made it easy to follow. It was a simple read but could have so much more depth if you look a little deeper. A great read for almost all ages.
