I guess humans like to watch a little destruction. Sand castles, houses of cards, that's where they begin. Their great skills is their capacity to escalate.

I can't seem to find enough words to describe how much I loved this book. I was completely engrossed it it after the first quarter or so. The writing was exceptional. I grew attached to all the characters. The last few chapters broke my heart, I could barely stop sobbing. It's definitely one of my most cherished reading experiences.
