I don't give a damn what the other reviews say, this book was written by a brilliant talent. Yes, there were some flaws but seriously wasn't the dude who wrote this like 17!?!? That to me is amazing in itself. Louis, you pissed me off with this book, poor, poor Andrew! But I adore you for giving him Jake, Bill, and Brian. A family for him was so sweet. I have never had to stop in the middle of a book before but YOU Louis YOU made me do that three times throughout this book when I just needed a minute to regroup. Now all your book will be added to my TBR list and I look forward to reading more!
