I've started reading a book called 'Willow.' It's not about the movie that had Val Kilmer in it. 4 champters in and it's very much a girl book. But I'll read through it. Unbelievable are the thoughts she has. I'm not sure anyone in the world thinks like her, but that doesn't matter.
The book talks about teenage depression and cutting.
I might at a later time write a review on the book.
- The Stranger aka Coffee & Cigarettes (a nickname given to me by my dad, believe it or not).

Willow... How could I describe the book of Willow without giving away the details of the story? The only way I could is to tell you that it makes you think. That it makes you look at yourself. The story, even if you don't quite connect to it... Makes you think about things you've done to yourself in the past or even lately. The story is at the end of book all about finding something you thought you'd never have... Even though there are parts of your life that you know you'll never get back. I think we all as people of society know just how that feels.
Honestly the book is a good read, easy at first and then the chapters build up.
The only gripe I have with the book is how the two main characters speak to each other. I admit at first I hated how the story consists of random thoughts from Willow. I then began to not be bothered so much by them really. It was just how they have her... I guess he is a love interest, but how he talks. He doesn't sound too much like a dude really. More or less like the imagination of how a woman or girl would love a guy to talk.
Honest rating, 5 stars our of 5 bright stars in the midnight sky.

I honestly find myself wondering where that story will go. I've found myself in two different books at the same time. Trying to keep my interest in reading and yet get two books out of the way. But the one that stays on my mind is Willow.
I'd just love to know where that story is going. Will it continue where it left off? What does the future hold for Willow and Guy?
Julia Hoban please tell me if you are going to continue that story.
