Josi Ok so this is no spoiler, just motivation to read the book I guess...
It really is one of the best books I've read and Charlie is one of the most beautiful characters I've read about. I've read this one two times already, but it wasn't boring at all the second time so I wouldn't even mind reading it a third time

@Josi and @Surabhi

Great that you've already read the book! It'll be really nice if you read it again.....just for the sake of participating in the group-read. But if you don;t want to, it's all right. But please don't forget to share your opinions of the books and how you enjoyed reading it....:)

Ritika Gupta (thesentimentalreader) | 8 comments I liked quite a few quotes from this book, but still never put it on my reading list, thinking I wouldnt be interested in this genre. Just because you chose it as the BOTM, I thought of trying and completed in 3-4 hours. Need not say, I liked it.. Will try and read again for the August challenge.
Coincidenteally, 1984 was the last book I read, which happened to be on the side-reads :)

I'm reading the pdf, and it has 230 pages. I checked on Goodreads itself and it showed 213 pages. Whatever it is....it can't be 160 pages. Maybe you could read the pdf in the link I provided.
