This is the only book that I literally stayed up all night to finish! This is an emotional whip-saw of a read. Duncan will have you laughing out loud in one paragraph, introspective in the next; by the next page you may be crying. Only a handful of books are exceptional enough to be on my top ten. This one is in the top five!

phenomenal book
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. From the first page to the last I loved it. I've already recommended it to everyone I know.
