What I Think About This Book:

I really enjoyed this book.  I liked the characters, although I was confused by some of their actions.  There was a bit of disconnect for me.  Not much, but enough that I noticed it.

My takeaway is that I should learn from my mistakes, instead of wishing to go back in time to change them.
