I didn't really know anything about this one, just that it had good reviews and just recently made it onto ALSC's Notable Children's Books list. So I picked it up. And now that I am done, I can absolutely see why it was on the notable list. This book is absolutely brilliant and beautiful. Sometimes when I read a book where things are really up in the air, I want to sneak a peek at the ending to see if all of the characters are going to make it. But I wasn't tempted even once while reading this one. For me, it was all about the journey. I realized partway through that however things ended up for the characters would be fine with me, because it was the experiences they were having that made the book so beautiful. But the ending didn't disappoint, either. It was fabulous. I could happily read this one again and would highly recommend it.
