Awesome book. Didnt think I would like it but LOVE it. Great story telling. Im only on page 436, but will stay up all night to finish. Love a book that makes me laugh and cry and feel so very deeply for the characters. This book has it all and I will be sad to finish it because I know I will want more.
I loved that it was narrated by death
