One of my top 10 ever, right up there with Kite Runner, Life of Pi, Secret Life of Bees, Poisonwood Bible, Dr. Zhavago and the Tolstoy novel sagas I read in college. (Throw in Gone with the Wind) The PEOPLE in this book lived and breathed. The way she wove the characters, events and murder mystery was unique, sensitive, so skillful that I could not put it down. The outcome was never guaranteed. ASIDE from the Aspergers (excellent insights there) it helped me to realize that I cannot EVER exactly walk in someone else's shoes. Thus this book was an epiphany in that way too. GREAT READ! I so recommend it and I've been reading for decades.
