Read a second time and still am in love. May be my favorite book ever. The emotions in this book are so pure with such a crazy cast of characters that just make sense. I may just have to get to The Hague to see this little painting that inspired this amazing book.
No matter if you love or hate this book. I think it will be something you want to talk about. I loved it and think it is by far the best book of 2014. Amazing story with twists and turns that I did not expect. A MUST read!

I just don't get the buzz about this book. There were passages that were great - some characters that were interesting. However, I found Theo completely unlikeable. At the beginning, he was a lost kid in the worst possible situation ... it was completely understandable that he hid the painting. However, through the course of the book, Theo became a thug, a liar, an unrepentant addict. The one character I loved was Hobie. For his kindness and faith that there is goodness in even the most flawed.
