I have a lot of good things to say, but I'll start off with the bad things because that's what's fresh in my mind and that's the type of person I am. This book could have possibly gotten a 4 1/2 star rating had Oscar just fucked off out of this book. I really hated the Jude/Oscar romance because ri...

I’m going to come right out and say it; I was a bit confused with this book.
