The writing on this book feels natural, easy to read, and is really well done. Personally I found the theme to be the protagonists desire to feel love, driven by the loss of his father at a young age. The search for both, the feeling of love, and his father, develops well throughout the book and reaches solid conclusions. Though quite fast paced, it has a smooth journey towards the conclusion without any jarring switches in plot. I was surprised the ending but definitely satisfied. To justify giving it 3.5 stars instead of higher I can only say why when comparing to other books. I didn't fully connect with any character in particular, and I was never on the edge of my seat waiting for the next chapter. Definitely a fun, easy to read, book and we'll worth the time.
