I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was funny and witty and sad and quirky and a totally enveloping read. I think Standiford speaks to the kind of girl that you (sadly) don't see too often in YA lit, and that's a great thing.
partes tontas alternadas com alguma doçura. Amizade, tristeza e a infinita loucura da adolescência. Nem mais, nem menos.
Well written book. Cared about the characters. Book made me pretty sad, but I think in the good way. I really wish better things happened for Walt. He and I seem to share that “remembering things people said” quality.
Would I recommend it to others? I'm not really sure. Its not a long book. I read it in about 3 hours.
I loved the darkness of it, but it seriously hit some triggers for me.

So much better than I expected. It was sad, too, really sad. I cried. But that could be because it's 1:30 in the morning, and somehow emotions are heightened in the way-early morning. Either way, good book, I recommend it.
