Definately four star. I really enjoyed this book. I cared a lot about the characters and wanted to know what would happen to them, right to the end. It has a lot of humorous parts, but it tugs at your hear too. I recommend it.

this is a great book. It is a bit odd and maybe hard to get to like at first, but it is really worth it.

Very funny and well written.
