I read the entire book on the plane ride from Tulsa to Sacramento (about 3 hours or so). Very easy read, but good. It was probably too young adult for me (and I love YA), but I still enjoyed it. I like the idea of getting into the mind of a teenage girl dealing with a horrible tragedy. It was heartfelt, filled with sentiment without being cheesy. Jenna is a very likable protagonist and you can't help but grieve with her. Oates doesn't wrap everything up neatly -- grief is never really over, after all -- and Jenna's path to finding peace and forgiving herself is far from easy. The story, however, is not without hope. 3.75 stars.
