Salman Nazir (salman180) | 864 comments Sorry guys for skipping and not participating in this read. But Sometimes life catches with you and make you do things that you don't want to do.
was so busy in last 2 weeks. so much had to be done. and legal system of our country is just toooo messed up.
Just to file documents for my own Bloody Birth certificate, had to go from one office to another and to another and another and so on and on. and yesterday. health officer said you are still in middle of the process ( yar paise de dete pehle kisi bande ko khacheri me wo sara kaam karwa deta ye tu hal hai).
so only log in to Goodreads 1 or 2 time.

Just wanna Say sorry for not participating.

Random chaos... Interesting theory! But life's not random, you know. It is about choices and the decisions we make. And I also believe that everything does happen for a reason, even if that reason doesn't have anything to do with you...
One thing more... do you people think our lives are predetermined?

Narjis Naqvi | 713 comments Usually I don't like happy endings, but I liked this one. I felt so bad for Macy in the beginning. But she grew, she changed and I loved it. Her new friends were fun, especially Kirsty was best and Delia who was like the awesome aunt everyone should have.
And still I think the ending motivational speech of Kirsty was like sixer :D, but it's necessary for happy endings.

Hehe and you may like black and a loner and corners lover and quiet like rejects and broken. :P well according to my calculation. :3

And yep Kristy speech was a sixer :p and re connection of Macy and her mom was not that good either. I was looking forward to it and they just huh and cry and that's all...

And situation like b/w Macy and Wes was only due to assuming things and making paradigms about it and words left unspoken... They would have been gotten together very soon but they didn't only because of fear of rejection and assumptions.

No, I don't like that much broken lover, but the endings like "aur sab hansi khushi rehny lagy" come with sixers :P

Agree with "cry and thta's all..." , mainly the story deserved a better ending. This ending was like "Gotcha" :D

I was going to suggest, "If I Stay". But Narjis and Salman have already read the book.
Then there was this novel, "My Heart and the other Black Holes". Again Narjis or Salman, zindabaaad! :p

Ab rah gai... "The Best of Me" by Nicholas Sparks. Its rating is lower than the above given books and it has mixed reviews.

And if Salman's not participating again this time, let's read "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn. :p I so want to read this one. XD
