I thought this was a fantastic book. I'm not usually big on books about people dying, but this one was vibrant and upbeat for the most part. While it did have some serious moments, they added depth to the story, and there were enough funny parts to keep the story enjoyable. The characters were outstanding as well. I highly recommend this book.
