God…I love this book…from cover to cover. I think Fenton and Steinke are a pretty good team. They have a way of writing stories that are perfectly put together that are engaging, unique, and a lot of fun to read. But it is more than that. The State of Things is also a book that makes you think, reflect, and make changes in your own life. It’s pure genius and I highly recommend it to everyone! 5 stars
