Words can not describe my feelings or thoughts for this perfection. I value this book more than I most things, even people. I would definitely without a doubt recommend this book, I promise you, give this book a chance, live in it, make it come alive in your mind you WILL fall in love. It's beautifully written and there is "themes" for every taste. Every single page has something to love of it's own, and if you piece them all together you fall in love.

The story itself is incredible it's edge of your seat reading I bought the first 1 and then the 10 year anniversary book shortly after because I had questions there's a lot of Q&A in back which helps you understand a lot of things in the book however it doesn't answer the burning question Did she commit suicide? it doesn't tell u any more about her home life ,Jack's no show or would she have been different if her mom lived you don't get an explanation of why she died or who she truly was
