| Ok, so I read this book because it's sitting around my house, waiting for my roommate to read and I knew it would take no time at all, so I read it. I'm fluctuating between 2 and 3 stars. Here's the thing about it, though--my opinion is colored by th...more | |

Kim, Hunter, my therapist

| I love this book and I'll give it four stars. But it's not for the reasons you think it is. I love it because it makes me think about myself. I love it because Jerry Spinelli has a few phrases here and there that pluck my literary chord. I love it be...more | |

| I love this book so much. Exactly what I needed at exactly the right time in my life. It took me about three months to finish (I've seen other reviews with about the same timeline) and I think it's because it takes time and commitment and thought and...more | |

| What i read was just ok. Couldn't finish it. Though, to be fair, I probably would've finished it if it weren't for the fact that it was a bookshelf book at our New Years vacation spot and I have to give it back. Then again, I might not have started i...more | |

“Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin' it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' the smiles returning to their faces
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darlin' I feel the ice is slowly meltin'
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been clear
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
It's all right, it's all right”
― George Harrison, The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics
