Wow, this wasn’t one of those things that you can read continuously.
I had to read it one chapter at a time taking a break every now and again to let each person’s story sink in. It really makes you re-evaluate the way you view your family and the dynamics of it; the way you love and why.
I may complain about my quirky family, but I wouldn’t trade them cuz it could be worse. And I mean a lot worse. My mom never threatened to get rid of me; my father never took off for days at a time; my two parent family was always there with the 3 kids never getting into drugs, or becoming alcoholics, or anything crazy.
So in my conclusion…I had a pretty damn awesome childhood and I love my parents for giving me all the opportunities in the world. And I still thank my twinkie for picking me up when life kiccked my ass.

The first chapter sounded just like the things that go on in my head.
So I got hooked and didn’t bother to read the flyer that was in the book that I was using as a bookmark. If I had I would’ve realized Mrs. Cabot was in Atlanta for a book signing that I could’ve gone to…she wrote The Princess Diaries, a movie I thoroughly enjoyed, albet a bit geeky.

A story about a make believe friend, though he is real.
9. A lesson Before Dying, by Earnest J Gaines -interesting
So far I’ve read Dean Koontz’s Shattered,Whispers, and Watchers a three in one novel. I’m a fanatic for Koontz—my next three in one is Dark Rivers of the Heart, Intensity, and Sole Survivor. In the past I’ve read False Memory, Cold fire, The Face, Odd Thomas and my very first Koontz novel was The Bad Place (which I actually listened to on tape…while working).
