This book gets confusing in parts trying to keep up with the imaginary "friends" and the real encounters. Told from the Dog-Mr. Bones perspective it gets sometimes flighty in occurences, and the ending shocked me and it will you too.
Aside that it really left you feeling sad and disheartened, but yet I couldn't put it down.
A good Book-Yeah, A GREAT book-No, not in my honest opinion but read it and then you decide.
Either way it was worth reading in spite of everything.
