I felt like it was one of Klassen's best efforts to date, and I was absorbed in the story from the moment I picked up the book. I didn't want to stop reading to live life! In fact, I dinged up my brand new cover a bit because I dropped it in my purse to go shopping...

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a free reading copy. A favorable review was not required. The review is based off the final paperback version.
