I keep on seeing it in bookstores, and I keep on thinking about you, and wondering how you're going with it.<br /><br />It is a GORGEOUS book. The cover, the size... so lovely.<br /><br />Umm... but that's all rather immaterial. ERIN. IT SOUNDS AMAZING.<br /><br />This sounds like one of those life changing books. One of the ones you read and it forever changes how you look at reading... I'm... wow. I'm genuinely blown away by your review. It's so far out of the realm of what I generally read, or what I'm interested in, but I'm not sure I can go past it. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. Thanks for sharing your AMAZING review!
