I read it at the beach during the day and it made such a dramatic impression on me-to this day I can not think about her choice with any more clarity than I did then. I can't say the novel changed my life-I mean I still did all the stupid things one does on the way to becoming an adult-but it certainly became an important marker of a time I will never forget.pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15960927546922312730noreply@blogger.com
