I liked this book a lot. I liked the pacing. I liked characters. I liked the bits of philosophy and religion to try and make sense of unanswered questions - both abstract and real.
(was I the only one who pictured Alex Karev from Grey's Anatomy as The Colonel?)
YA books aren't my favorite but these characters were less cartoony and cliche than typical YA books.
This counts as a popular author's first book for the 2015 PopSugar Reading Challenge.

2.5 stars. I wanted to like this more than I did, especially after recently reading and loving The Fault in Our Stars. Granted, it was thoughtfully written as the other was, but I just had a really hard time connecting with the characters.
