jianantonicI haven't ever finished a whole book in one day when it wasn't required reading. That is, until now. That book was so good. It was never like the movie at all. I still like the movie...but I'm glad I read the book. I am, of course, crying. I always get so emotional. But that's good.
It made me think of Jeremy. I try not to be really sappy and lovey dovey about him, because it always irks me when other people talk about their significant others like they are the only other people in the world. I've never felt like Jeremy was the only other person in the world. And I know he's not the only other person that I love or that loves me. But I love him so much and I am sometimes so overwhelmed by it that I can't help but cry about it. Honestly, I think about my friends and family the same way. This book talks about a girl growing up without a mother, and I just keep thinking, I love my mother so much. I don't know what I'll ever do without her. I'm so lucky to have both of my parents. And my brothers. And Emily. All of the Emilies. And all of the friends that aren't Emilies. This has really turned into a sapfest, I know. But this is why I love books like this. They make me think about my own situation and remind me how lucky I am. And it's a really good thing. Deep breath.
Well, time to sift through email and see what people have to say to me. Peace.
