I’m going through a transition period in my life — shifting careers, relationship changes, etc. I can’t remember the last time I read a book that pulled me in and made me forget about everything else in my life. I want a book that will give me the feeling that I had when I was ten and would look forward to after school and tuition just so I could read. Open to sad, dark, funny, romantic, etc., just please no fantasy!
