Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested: that is, some books are to be read only in parts, others to be read, but not curiously, and some few to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention. (Sir Francis Bacon)

Blue Notebook: A Novel (James Levine)

Wow.

That's all I can say. Wow.

This is a very well-written book, to the point that I frequently forgot that it was just a book. I wanted to run out and save Bantuck, and cried because I couldn't. And I cry because there really are girls out there like Bantuck that need to be saved, and I can't save them.
