Ratings and reviews

i read this in eighth grade and I gotta admit it's honestly one of my favorite things to read, and for it being an older story I can follow every thing it says down to a tea, it's a great read if you're ever looking for something twisted yet clever, then this shall be the story.

Love this book, I read it as a kid and u read it now to my boyfriend. the author is amazing! he grabs ahold of the emotions so well

Quite hard to read (As in most old books) but fascinating nonetheless.
