One of my all-time favourites. My 12 year old son picked it up recently and asked if he could read it but don't think he's old enough yet. I was quite young when I read it first and it was pretty overpowering for me and had a big emotional impact. Maybe when he's a wee bit older yet.

First read it when i was 14/15. Then again not a long time after. Really good book and has a powerful story.
