I LOVED this book because I feel rays of hope throughout my soul after reading it. I remember that, although the world is full of pain, there is so much good in it as well. I've recommended it to about a million people, because it is the best book I have ever read. I wish I could move into their house in the canyon and live in the place like Los Angeles where it's hot and cool, glam and slam, angels and devils. This is a good book for 7th grade and up.
