Some stuff I REALLY want to read.
The Lovely Bones
P.S. I Love You
Wuthering Heights (the library doesn’t stock this O_O)
Jane Austen
Virginia Woolf (I couldn’t find any of her books the last time I checked at the library T.T)
The Kite Runner
Well, and yes for those who enjoy reading books that make you cry, check out The Dogs of Babel. Recommended to me by my senior, it’s a really good book. Applauded for being “written with a quiet elegance and a profound knowledge of love’s hidden places”, (and by the way I love that entire phrase) the book is both a love story and a mystery novel all at once. I cried once after reading every page while halfway through the book. You can’t exactly blame me for wanting to read P.S. I Love You, can you?
Here’s a question for you to ponder. Is it right to have a few loves in a lifetime? Isn’t there something inherently wrong about pledging your heart to someone, only to love another person when the initial one is no longer there? Feel free to leave a comment.

Judging by the list of things you want to read, you might like An Island Away, by Daniel Putkowski. Intense look at three lives tangled up in a waning refinery town, San Nicolaas, Aruba.
