Warning #1 - read whilst alone; or only with people you are willing to cry in front of. It takes a lot to make me cry and I was blubbing whilst reading this.
Warning #2 - do not start reading at 11pm. It may be a fairly quick read (2.5 hours for me) but it will keep you awake for hours afterward.

This has been at the top of my to-read list for months now but I've been putting it off because it was getting such great reviews, so it couldn't possibly be great, right?
There was no ‘getting into' this book, first couple of pages and I was hooked. Whilst I expected a couple of the big events to happen, they didn't feel like the author was taking the easy choices (not in the slightest).

I am very glad this book did not end the way I expected; finishing is important.
