I'm dying. Holy guacamole. That was beautiful.
I can't express it into words, what Ellen Hopkins can do. She's unbelievable. A superhuman? I cannot disagree otherwise. To be honest, I'm usually not the person to cry in books. I didn't even cry in Impulse. (Heartless, yeah.) (view spoiler)
Perfect was definitely perfect.
This book touches your heart. Poignant. and perfectly. I don't think I'll ever be the same.
(view spoiler)
I don't think this can ever be expressed into words. Except maybe by Ellen Hopkins because she can do anything.
Ellen Hopkins. That woman. My life.
Godgodgod I love this book so go read it.<3
I cried I died and I loved. I hope the same goes for you.
And also, I would like to let you know that no matter who you are, always remember to love yourself because being yourself is the most perfect thing in the world. Don't let expectations bring you down. Remember: we all have a choice. So make the right one.
Be who you want to be.
Follow your dreams.
Believe in yourself.
(And that was totally not corny.)
*arm flailing of happiness*
And below is the pre-book review in case anyone was like WTF?

“Fake
Is that what you are
if you choose to improve
the basic not perfect you?”

“Paradise
A concept embraced by almost every culture. A land of peace
and harmony. Some say it
doesn't
belong to the earth, that there
is no Shangri-la, no utopian
wilderness for the living.”

“Am I more afraid
Of taking a chance and
learning I'm somebody
I don't know, or of risking
new territory,
only to find I'm the same
old me? There is comfort
in the tried and true.
Breaking ground
might uncover a sinkhole,
one impossible to climb out
of. And setting sail in
uncharted waters
might mean capsizing into
a sea monster's jaws.
Easier to turn my back on
these things
than to try tjem and fail.
And yet, a whisper insists
I need to know if they are or
aren't integral to me.
Status quo is a swamp.
And stagnation is slow death.”

Seems like someone is having a panic attack over the ending of a "great" book.. Now I'm reluctant to try it, because I usually read during class and I don't want to spazz out during Civics Lol
Do you know where i might be able to download this ebook for my formant pdf or epub? do you think you can help me ?
Sorry, no. Library? Some of them offer ebook downloads. There's always amazon. Alas, I don't know any free ones, if that's what you're asking.
