    "All the Light We Cannot See," signed by Anthony Doerr, is as pictured & described. Got a great deal on it! Great communication. The book arrived quickly & safely into my eager hands. The beautiful hardback was gift wrapped in craft paper, then wrapped in bubble wrap, then snuggled amongst a cozy nest of crumpled newspaper inside a sturdy box. Fort Knox in a Box! Thank you for your care & attention! So excited to add this classic to my growing library! Thank you!! !!!Seller Highly Recommended!!!

    If you are a bibliophile then you probably appreciate the little details when buying a book... new or used. This book arrived in what I would call MINT condition even though it was only listed as VG+... always a pleasant surprise. Furthermore... the seller took the time to not only package the book safely for transport but also took the time to carefully and artfully wrap the book in butcher paper with careful folds like you would get from a fine book shop. I will be buying here again!

    Poignant Story of the Teenage Years

    As an older person reading a Young Adult book, I view this book as a combination of Romeo and Juliet, and the movie The Breakfast Club (and that's an indication of my age.) I haven't actually finished it, but I'm torn between wanting to not put it down until I finish it and not wanting to read it too fast and it being over. I'm hoping it ends more like The Breakfast Club rather than Romeo and Juliet but, regardless, I recommend this book to readers of all ages.

  • LOVE this book

    I remember what it was like to be young and in love. I also remember what it was like to be in high school in the '80s. This book nails them both. I have read and reread it a few times now. Doesn't get old for me.
