Took me 2 months to read this beast. Well, it was a re-read technically but I didn't remember anything from the first read 10 years ago. I read it in preparation for watching season 2 of the show.

Engrossing from beginning to end, a reader can easily see themselves hanging out with these characters. Some characters are there to love, and some are there to hate, but most of them are in between. They are not all good and not all bad, making it hard sometimes to take sides.

I'm curious how the 2nd season of the show will compare to the book, looking forward to finally getting to watch it.
