I love this book more than anything. Bought another copy after lending mine out and had to re read again less than a year after the first time. The book is too deep to go into depth with a review. Heart warming and heart breaking in equal measure. If I could have just one book to read it would be this one. Not for many years has a book affected me the way this one did.

This is the worse book I have EVER read. It is far fetched and highly improbable. The author must have a very strange mind. I would not recommend this

I was looking for something new to read and saw this book on a 'Top 100 Must Read' type online site. So thought I'd give it a go. It took a short while to get into the characters and remember who was who (as there were quite a few to begin with). But once in... I was gripped. Such a beautiful, thought provoking book. So sad and distressing at times, but done in such an empathetic way, it didn't upset me too much. The characters are so individually great that you genuinely can't wait to read another page. I have already recommended this book to a friend and bought it for another. This book is so different to your usual 'easy read' type of book and extremely addictive once started. I honestly couldn't stop reading it. Some days, for hours! The content of the book could be too much for some people, but the way the writer portrayed such sadness and badness, made it that much more interesting. Certainly a 5/5 book. Buy. I know you won't regret it.Read full review

i bought this book having high hopes for it. I am not happy with the way it came, the spine has awful cracks all down and the pages are bent meanwhile the front cover has bends through it too. Not pleased and i will never buy from here again. do not reccomend this

I loved this book up until the last few chapters where it is unbearably sad. I wished for Jude to have a happy ending which is more than he deserved, to be with Willem.
