This is one of those sort of books that redefines for me what reading can be. It changes the definition of what heights literature can reach and how much I can love. I watched the movie before reading this.. but it was a couple years ago and I remember it kind of like a fuzzy dream. I don't know how much that has or could influence my appreciation for this book. Reading this as an audiobook with  Candace Thaxton specifically narrating it was perfection. I struggle to see how this could be enjoyed to the same degree in a text format... just everything about this books production was perfect. I will have to revisit it to see what I think someday. For now, I'm thinking of reading this.
