Just got this book yesterday in the mail and I decided to start reading it last night instead of watching some T.V. Interesting approach since the entire book consist of letters to and from one person. Sounds strange but the writing is wonderful and you want to be friends with the main character. I couldn't put the book down until I feel asleep reading. Delightful book!
