a unique and awesome story on the tragedy of love and family and loss and the fantasy of doors and more worlds beyond them. this book made me feel such intense emotions after what appears to be a very long time.so long that i forgotten what it actually felt like. the ten thousand doors of January makes you ache for your own adventure and provides one to fill the longing. its not your typical story of childhood and teenage fantasies about doors and realms beyond but a reality that as a reader you too start to believe. its absolutely brilliant .and i for one was never a fan of romance but this book has redefined it .totally recommend to all regardless of any personal preferences . believe me when i say that its one of those youll wish to have found sooner.
