Oops.


I read another one. I know, I know, how can I be complaining of how busy I am when I make time for a novel..? Well, I seriously read in line, on my way home from campus (which is like a 6 mile walk...not really though) and in between classes with short breaks.

The Pact, is also a gem. I have always been a very passionate and emotional person, and this book reminded me of it. I felt like I was in this book and wrapped up in all the passion involved. If you feel like you can take all of it in and truly soak it up, then I suggest you read this, but don't if you don't like to read of love & tragedy. That's right folks, it's a TRAGEDY!! Remember Romeo & Juliet ? Similar story (which by the way is one of my favorite movies...but so is Moulin Rouge and Titanic..ha) but with real life. I can't really say I can relate to Emily in the story, but I can relate to the love that she and Chris have.  I don't want to give anything away. Read it!!! And tell me what you think. Shoot. I should start a book club. 

ps. I'm sorta bummed I never studied english further after high school. I think I really would have enjoyed it.

pss. I hate the cover. Gosh Jodi, let me help you out. (her last name pronounced as: PICO) I was almost embarrased to read it on campus for people to see the cover.

psss. This was one of those books for me that I didn't even realize that I was finished within a couple of days. All of the sudden today, I had about 50 pages left and was shocked because I read it so quickly. Definitely a page-turner.
