Seriously. I remember looking at it over the course of a couple of months whenever I would go to the bookstore. Every time, I'd set it back down thinking it'd be too sappy for my tastes, until one day I just decided to try it out. Easily my favorite book I've read this year. I've since learned to take more chances on all kinds of books. :)

I know the author and was excited but at the same time trepidatious. Just because you know and like someone doesn't mean you'll like their writing.

I was happy to be completely wrong. It's a book that really hit the perfect spot for me this year. I need to reread it.
