Fangirl: A Spazz Story.

Bless you Rainbow Rowell for sprinkling this book with fairy dust. It was truly, a magical experience.

This book is like hot chocolate topped with sweet and gooey marshmallows.

This is the kind of book that makes you want to crawl beneath the covers and stay there forever.
Also the kind of book that makes you want to stay late at night and wake up early just to read.

Truth be told, finishing this book was the only thing I could think about---even during meetings---I always find myself drifting back to it . Heck, I even thought I could carry on without eating because this book is enough sustenance.

So, Argh. It's hard to describe the wonders of this book. I felt that this book was written just for me. Every scene. Every line. It felt like someone was writing my fantasies for me.

Take Cath. Gahd. If there was ever a character I could totally relate to---it was Cather. I think we may even have the same 'fetish", if you could call it that. I absolutely loved everything about her---Naah, I absolutely loved all the characters.

Levi, Levi, Levi. My prayers every night from now on should be "Dear God, give me my own Levi". He's just the perfect book boyfriend. Geeky. Sweet. Nice. You could just drink him all in.

The story---this is the best Rainbow Rowell I've read. In Attachments, I wasn't that convinced with the romance. In Eleanor and Park, well I loved everything about that book---but this is infinitely better for me. If we could have books for soulmates, this would be mine.

Of Lady Stoneheart

Lady Stoneheart did not appear on the last episode of Game of Thrones Season 4. Some article say that it is a good thing for her appearance somehow signifies the crossover of the series into the fantasy genre. Oooh. But I beg to disagree. We all knew that A Song of Ice and Fire is a fantasy right from the Prologue of the first book. Hello, the Others. It was what hooked us up to begin with. I still haven't watched any episode from the 4th season---and if the TV series will continue to diverge from the books, I may never watch it at all. Yes. I was not so happy when I first read about Lady Stoneheart---or what she did with Brienne. But I also feel that she will play a big part in the future. So please---for the love you bear to the book series---HBO, let Lady Stoneheart appear on the 5th season. As much as I would hate to see Brienne die.

I'm just rambling. Hahaha. Bored does this to.me.
