Real life characters in real live situations with real outcomes. I felt like it was more of an example of true friendship than a love story, but I suppose that is a love story right? These characters command you to look at your own friendships and other relationships. I feel that when you begin to place yourself into the characters situations- that is a good book! Good job!</p>
