Or as Min would say Arty?This book had its good, touchy moments but for the best part it made me feel depressed and that's not what I would like to feel when I'm reading.The writing style was a tad overboard for my taste, even th...
Review from March 2012: The beginning of this book annoyed me slightly. I was constantly asking myself why Min was telling Ed these stories when he had been there.
