I haven't been this affected by the lives of fictional characters in quite a while. I was genuinely worried for them, and hopeful for them, and sad for them whenever things went wrong. A couple of times, I thought my heart was being ripped out. There may have even been a lump in my throat once or twice.
And don't let this book's age detour you, either; it is immensely, amazingly, surprisingly readable. Of course, maybe it was just me. Nope, I can't be THAT off.
