This book was heart-wrenching, yet wonderful. Alice is a very likable 15 year old that is dealing with her father going to Iraq. The book is part her dealing with not having him and part her growing up. It takes you back to that age in an instant. It reads more like an adult book than YA, even though Alice is 15. I feel like bringing a certain maturity that comes from being an adult adds to the story, but I could see some teenage girls liking it also. My only warning is be prepared to cry- and I'm not a crier!
