Reading really passes the time.
Mr. Faye, i got the books you sent me today and i finished two of them already. Like you said the I heart you, you haunt me book took me like two minutes to read, it was a really good book. Lisa Schroeder is a very brilliant writer, i really liked how the whole entire book was written in like a poem formation. It was cool to read something differently like that, it gets boring reading the same formation over and over again. It was kinda sad reading it though, cause her boyfriend Jackson seemed like a really nice guy and that they were really in love and all that other gushy crap. That little dare game they had seemed fun, its fun being dared to to something awesome every once in a while. Something that you would never do unless someone dared you too cause sometimes people are to scared to go ahead and do it themselves, and maybe some people like having the attention and audience, and the cheers and applause that come after they complete the dare. I don't do dares anymore cause the last time i played that game i was swimming in a sea of perverted people and that kinda dampered my outlook on the dare game. Anyway, at the end when Ava told Jackson that he needed to leave that he didn't belong there anymore and it wasn't right this way, but that she would always remember what they shared together and that she would always love him. Then he told her "okay I'll leave but only if you give me all your guilt to take with me." that was really sad for me, but after she says her sorrys and lets go of the guilt, and he leaves when you read it a wave of peaceful kinda swipes over you and its like for a spilt second you become Ava and all the relief and peacefulness she finally gets, you experience it along with her. I think its great that Ava had all that support from her family and friends and i freaking love what she says at the end when shes sitting with her friends on her birthday; "I feel thankful for the best gift of all, it's the one wrapped around my heart with a big pink bow- then never-ending gift of friendship."

Don't you just LOVE technical problems? I think you should put at the bottom of this post: Please don't adjust your television, we are experiencing technical difficulties and are working to fix the situation. We will rejoin your regularly scheduled program already in progress...
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeleteI just finished Schroeder’s book. It took me 28 minutes. I needed to finish it quickly because I needed to see Ava not grieving so much. I don’t know if I’m going to be able to sleep now…
