    <body><![CDATA[I just finished this book a couple of hours ago, and I'm sure I won't really digest it for days.  As of now, I think it is the saddest book I've ever read.  Now I truly understand what people mean when they say things are &quot;haunting.&quot;  As scary as the Exorcist, but with a sad, heavy heart.  This novel brought up a lot of weird stuff for me, quite unexpectedly.  I loved it, but I don't think I'd want a copy of it sitting around my house (I got it from the library).]]></body>
