Review: Another of my favourite YA books. Looking back on it, I don't quite understand why it was one of my favourites. Oh, it's still good, no question about that, and stood the test of time pretty well, but it doesn't have a happy endning. And I was a sucker for happy endings back then, so I don't know why this one appealed to me so much. It was fun to reread it though.
