This book has been on my TBR for such a long time. A few days ago I was talking to a friend about how much I wanted to read it and she offered to give me her copy! Within the space of 24 hours I read this book from cover to cover. I must admit there were tears... but only of happiness! I didn't look into the context much before reading. All I was aware of was that the main character was called August and he had a facial deformity. Throughout the book I did discover the different perspectives which was really interesting. It's really odd how one-sided a book can get without having the perspective of the 'so-called' bad guy.

The overall book was a pleasure to read. The growth of the characters from the start to the finish was really beautiful. Though the book's main focus was on character development, the plot was also interesting! It's really hard to express my love for this book without giving spoilers. You really need to read it and then we can chat about it in the comments! The morals of this story are really important: even you don't think that you need a reminder.
