Great read, not too easy to see where it's going and just interesting plot and characters and even type setting. Our question is, does the man with the wrapping paper ever get explained? What do you think he's supposed to be?

Has this book come out yet? I know it says the release date is on the 7th of June but on an online bookstore it says they have the book and that is was published on the 25th of May. I want to know so then I know whether to buy it or not. The link is this: http://www.booktopia.com.au/the-leaving-tara-altebrando/prod9781408877807.html. By the way, it is Australian.
