Love, love, love this book! Easily one of my all time favorites. Highly recommended for everyone! The storyline was constant as each character tries to find their niche in life, the writing style was wonderful, and the characters were nicely developed and I felt like I really knew them (even if they were incredibly shallow at first *cough* Will *cough*). I really enjoyed all of the Nirvana bits that were included after Marcus meets Ellie.

Full disclosure: I had already seen both the movie and the TV show before I read the book- I absolutely adore ALL THREE!
