Breathing in the Pages ღ discussion

Our other BotM is John Green's The Fault in Our Stars!!! Please post below if you have any comments, questions, concerns, feelings that need to be expressed about this book, etc.!!!

This is the one book that made me cry the most. By the end of this book i looked like a mess I had cried soooo much but it was beautifully written.

ikr. Chapter 21 *she sniffles* and the last couple of pages *she asks WHY to John Green*. So MANY METAPHORS AND SYMBOLS

I know!! it was a really deep book

I get up really early in the morning to go to school so if you guys want, I can post a topic to discuss about the chapter of the day (already read it and have a copy handy)

I'm really excited about this BotM!! I've already read it but it will be nice to discuss it with people who know what I'm talking about :) and get the same emotions from the context !

id love to reread this book with other people! and just so everyone knows Mae is the BOTM coordinator!!! So she's in charge :)
