An amazing story that had me wrapped up into it. I decided to read this book because I've been rereading or discovering the books I never got to read in high school, and besides 1984 and slaughethouse five, this has to be one of the next big favorites in classics. The only thing I didn't like was the way the author wrote. Sometimes I'd get so confused on the wording of a sentence or even some of the kids dialogue. But besides that it was a great read. I fully believe that if a situation like that were to happen today, I feel it'd be the same. Its just as relevant now as it was then and a book everyone should read and learn from.
