I started this book thinking

'Ah, seems like a weird book with a huge age gap beween the main leads and the story seems like its going to be dragged'

Holy hell, how wrong was I.

God fucking knows why I haven't read this book when I've had it since like Aug '12!! I feel like kicking myself, HARD!!

Author, I love you and I've got only one thing to say to you

Totally touch me to the core

When I reached 58% of the book, I yelped, jumped around like a mad child and ran into my hall where my mother was sitting and screamed "FOUND THEM" and she thought I was absolutely nuts, but she knew what I was talking about because as I was reading this book, I keep telling her about it and gushing about the absolutely amazing story I'm reading. I was crying happy tears

At the end of the book, I was totally

What an AMAZING book, Its like a totally must read.
The way the author has written this book, its capturing. I didn't put it down for a minute. Both the main characters were like the best and totally priceless! I loved/adored them! Seriously, I'm smittened to the core by this book. T.J and Anna were PREFECT! Their love so pure, the 13/14year age gap was barely noticed. Their whole journey, their experience was so capturing I was in awe of the book.
Each scene was so capturing and it portrayed so many emotions, each twist and turn left me totally stunned and the only though processing in my brain was WOW!! THIS BOOK IS SOMETHING ELSE IN THIS OWN LEAGUE!!
Each twist they over came, I felt a rush of emotions, I felt fear for them, love for them, I felt proud of them for surviving and I felt honor for them, I am like a mixture of toooo many emotions! I am so overwhelmed!

After some of the most intese scenes, the author would lighten the mood by a good line or an excellent scene

Dinner was always special when you killed it, instead of the other way around.

“What’s it like being with her? Is it true what they say about older chicks?”
“She’s not that much older.”
“Uh, okay. So anyway, how is it?”
“It’s incredible.”
“What’s she do?”
“She does everything, Ben.”

Please, Read this book if you haven't! It is sooo worth it!
