Most things in this book lack depth & heart (characters, world building, school setting); and when describing (based on real life) war atrocities, a lack of depth and a point to make about them becomes highly problematic.
I didn't think I would give it 5 stars. Then the last 100 pages happened. Man it's been a long time since I picked up something that drew me in this much.
I liked it, but I wasn't blown away by it. The characters were pretty believable, but the story in my opinion had a little bit too little to it, there were no subplots.
