SPOILER ALERT

My friend Leonard(69), My #favquote so far is, "I am shaking. The Fury is screaming. The greif is overwhelming me please please please. I can make it all go away. I can kill it." I like this because its the perfect way to describe how James feels everyday of his life due to his alcoholism.

The #bigidea, James comes back for Lilly to find out something horrible has happened. The only thing that was keeping him alive was her, now hes going to have to live without her with his friend Leonards help.

#romance, James asks to see Lilly's body. "I take her hand beneath the sheet. It is stiff and cold. I take her hand. I am with her. I hold her. I love her. She's at rest. Cry." I cried from this. James misses her so much.

#timetravel. I like how Leonard and James meet while their in the mental hospital. "He asked my name and I told him. He told me his name and asked if I was f***** up. I said yes, Leonard, Im f***** up, I'm f***** up real bad. He offered me his hand and said good, Im f***** up too, and I like f***** up people, lets sit and eat and see if we can be friends."  They are father like son now. #friendship

#writing style, James Frey's writing style really draws attention. Its sentence beneath sentences, rather than reading left to right. " I wish she was here. Would give whatever, everything. For five minutes. One smile. One laugh. One kiss. Just one." etc, but the sentences are beneath eachother, not just left to right. I think thats awesome. Makes you wonder.

Reading Survey

The best book I've ever read was A Million Little Pieces, written by James Frey. My mom actually recomennded it because shes a big reader, and she knows I only read books that keep me entertained and leave me wanting to read more. The book was really intense, had many cliffhangers and there was always a crazy twist when you didnt expect it.
The books I enjoy to read have to usually do with abusive relationships, abusive home lives, drugs/alcohol, highschool problems, everything in those general categories. I enjoy those kind of books because theres usually so much going on to the point where a book will put me in tears, and I think those are the best books.
When I read, depending on whats going on, Im usually putting myself in the narrarator's shoes, or putting myself right into the book, where you literally have a movie/story going on in your brain. I love imagining whats going on when I read, It makes you enjoy your read so much more and you can imagine whatever, however you want. I love that about reading.
