Actual rating : 4,5 
 It was quite close to the perfect mark. I couldn't resolve myself to give it though due to minor loose threads (view spoiler)[ Tom and Dom's relationship. Felt like I wasn't sure if things were better or not. Is his family moving back? Not quite sure either if they'll be fine on their own or together. (hide spoiler)] 
 But apart from that well a Marchetta's book is so well written. Her characters are plausible and they become alive. Almost feel like you are in the book with them. I have a great imagination and books take me a long way. But with Marchetta, nope. My imagination does not need to do anything, it's all there ready for anyone to grasp. 
 Oh and was it not a treat to have news (yes yes it's like people you used to know) of Francesca and Will and the whole gang from Saving Francesca? Thank you Melina Marchetta!
