Yayy! I finished the book. We had thunderstorms last night and I couldn't sleep so I read until 230am. There were times when I wondered what the point of the book was but I kept reading in good faith. If you're one of the people that reads the last chapter 1st, you will really ruin your reading experience. (just thought I would give fair warning). I could have lived without some of the language in the book and I think the book could have too. All in all I am glad that I had the opportunity to read this.

I will send on to stardustedangel this weekend.

I know I've had this book forever, and I apologize. I almost sent it on without reading it, because my reading time was interrupted for awhile. I'm really glad the selfish part of me kept it and read it because it has gone onto my list of all time favorite reads. I LOVED this book!!The characters were so realistic, and I became very involved with their lives. Again, I am so sorry for keeping this for so long!!! Sending home to narfinmagic on Tuesday. Thanks so much for offering this as a ring!
