4.75 stars ! 
 Such an incrdible book with all the meaning.. I enjoyed both parts so much. I found the story very important as it has a big message of things such as friendship, helping people and also for how (view spoiler)[ someone's personallity can be trashed because of the abuse (hide spoiler)] . 
 I have never read a book like this before , I cried a couple of times because of how much the story hurts. It contains a lot of stuffs that makes it a hard book to read. I believe that all of you should give a try for this as it has an aspect on life in which it speaks about a fact that is known in our society... and Now let's jump into spoilers : 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 The violence that is set in this book is really savage, and painfull.. Julian lost his parents when he was eight years old in an accident,so after 8 months of their death, he lived with Adam and his mom in which he made a very close relationship with his foster family, then his uncle Russel came to take care of Julian and here where things became shitty for the little kid. 
 Russel started to abuse Julian, he tortured him till death :(. The most cruel part was at the second part of the book when he put him in the trunk, it was hilariously crazy. I was so shocked. 
 Also, He filmed himself beating Julian when he was about ten ou nine years old... it was really hard to read this, I couldn't believe my eyes. 
 Russel also was abused by his father when he was young and he tried to put on all his anger and pain that his father caused him on Julian, and doing this made him feel so satisfied. <:/spoilers> (hide spoiler)]
