Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close

I just finished it thsi morning and loved it. It's really very sad and I did have a bit of a hard time with the subject at first (the main character's dad died in the Sept11 attacks), but something about it is very uplifting...maybe because it was told from the point of view of a child???

Highly recommended.

I had heard about this and wanted to read it but my library didn't have it in. I'll have to remind myself to look for it again.
