Picked it up and honestly could not put it down for a moment. Read it while waiting for the bus, riding BART, eating dinner, eating lunch, before bed....
I fell in love with all the characters from Dietrich in Antarctica to Xerxes crazy twin Gabriella to King Bonz a Thai orphan to The Serpant to Tres the Olympic skier virgin quadraplegic.

INTENSE READ!!
