OMG talk about Book Hangovers. I started off with a bad day Saturday and picked up “ The Idea Of You” . It was here, I just had not started it. I really am not sure how to say this , but I could not even finish the last 30 pages until the middle of the next night. I knew the ending but still. It moved me and my own memories of a lifetime ago in my middle 30’s . He wasn’t in a about a Boy Band but he was 24 and handsome and sexy and we fell madly in love . I had 2 kids . He wanted kids . He needed to finish school . I loved him with my whole heart and it was returned . I would have lost my kids. I would have lost half of what I owned . I would have had to work and live in student housing . I too left a young man crying as I cried my heart out because I could have stayed. He called every day. I did not pick up. I never forgot him. I never found a love like that again . I guess that is why this book affected me so deeply . I’m not sorry I read it but it will still stay with me a while . I really wanted that happy ending for them . Great book!!!

At your recommendation, I read City of Girls by the pool last summer and really loved it. It’s a rare combo of glamour and frivolity but written in an intelligent way.
