I just finished this book lastnight and I can't stop thinking about it. It makes you think about how you treat people who you don't understand. This book justifies the fact that you should treat everyone with respect because you never know when you are meeting an angel. This book was recomended to me by a couple of friends who read as well and I am really glad I read it. Now I am going to read The Body of Christopher Creed because those same friends have read it and said it was just as good. I now am recomending it to all my other friends because I know everyone can get something from it.

I love this book. I read it because of The She and I fell in love with that book. I thought that a book couldn't measure up to Harry Potter but this book does. It makes me rethink about life, how I live it, and how I treat people. It showed me some things I never thought about before. It was a great book and I highly recommend it! This book is about Angels, real Angels, and your inner Demons. It is great! Forget about the preps in school and start to think about the dorks you picked on. If you are someone that is picked on, this book can help give you closure. Even if you are neither like me then you will find something in this book. It doesn't matter who you are or how old you are you will find something within this book.

When I read this incredible masterpiece, I found that I could identify with the characters wonderfully and the storyline and lesson of the book was exquisite.

As I read the book I began to feel for the characters, I felt as though they were people I knew; people I understood. Lani Garver becomes a role model and a true guardian angel; Although you can tell his fate is unlikey from the very first chapter of the book, you still have a profound hope that something good will come for him.

Claire is stubborn and in need of desperate help, little to her knowledge. When she takes the chance to step out of her safe zone and into new boundries, she begins to see the world through new eyes; her life is forever changed.

This book has brought me to tears multiple times. Thinking about it leaves me thinking of Lani as if he was a real person; hoping and wishing for his being.

Personally I believe everyone should read this book; everyone has different viewpoints and I have faith that many lives would be touched and forever changed.

This is the best book I have ever read. It gave me an entire new outlook on people who are gay and what they go through. I have read this book at least 5 times. I really believe everyone needs to read this book, it could help a lot of people who have a screwed up life like the lovable Claire and Lani.

I loved what this book said so much that I actually made a poster of amazing sayings that are in this book and hung it on my wall to think about.

Lani Garver is in a sense, my role model. This book is what made reading a hobby for me. Ever read or watch or hear about something that makes you lay in bed at night just thinking and trying to figure it out and before you know it it's like..4 in the morning? That's exactley what this book can do. That is, if you aren't already up at 4 reading it because you can't really put it down once you get into it. I recommend this book to any teenager insterested in a book that will hit even the most 'tough' guys emotional side. Have fun to all of those who pick up this book, and you decide for yourselves, what did happen to Lani Garver?
