Really captivating from the start. Lots of vibrant imagery, made me feel really involved in this story. Toward the end, it dwinldled a bit for me, as I became really attached to a character that played a lesser and lesser role. (Cal's grandmother.) And sad that Callie, whom we come to know throughout the course of events, becomes Cal rather quickly... almost not leaving enough of a chance to get to know the new version of the narrator as well as I had hoped.

Overall, really great!
