One of the best books I have ever read. For my assignment in english class we have to read this book and most of the time I hate the novels my teacher picks for us to read but this is an incredible book. It's hard warming,but also tear jerking and it is truly a roller coaster of emotions. Max and Kevin's friendship warms my heart and I definitely recommend this book!
