i can't get a coherent thought together quick enough before i start crying again. it's like there's this heavy snow on it all; a silenced weight. and the story is slowly, heavily creeping along as we shift from the realization that this story isn't really who you thought it was about in the first place. OH THE GIRLHOOD OF IT ALL. easily one of the best books i've read.
