Purchased on www.half.com to send to my book deprived nephew in Germany, Edibnihon.
I might have a quick read first, though.

I decided to have a quick read before I send it off, and I am glad I did.
This is one of those books that manages to be extremely well-written without being condescending. Russo does an excellent job of showing you all the characters as they present themselves...but also showing you the flip-side of that, making them more human. The story is both touching and humorous and you cannot help but love every character.
