I want to believe this book has a happy ending because I watched the movie first and kinda disappointed with how it ended. I always love this sort of adventure, road trip, not-so-cheesy-romance story. Then I think Cara Delevingne and Nat Wolff perfectly fit Margo and Quentin, I kept picturing them while I read this book.

This book will always have a special place in my heart. It reminds me of my teenage life when I always craved an adventure and such things (or maybe I still do).

I stand in this parking lot, realizing that I've never been this far from home, and here is the girl I love and cannot follow. I hope this is the hero's errand, because not following her is the hardest thing I've ever done.

I keep thinking she will get into the car, but she doesn't, and she finally turns around to me and I see her soaked eyes. The physical space between us evaporates. We play the broken strings of our instruments one last time.

I had mixed feelings about this book. But I surprisingly enjoyed this one!

I took slow progress on this one because it has some characters to be memorized and well, I'm a coward — I got goosebumps every time I read it. A spine-chilling and very brilliant story.

This reminds me of my middle school times when I always loved to read a Q & A or tips about love, friendship, etc. in the magazine. And I think it's clever to write this type of book by analyzing how Jane Austen would answer or do based on her writing.

Here are some of my favorite quotes:

You must stop thinking of yourself as inferior and start living as the heroine of your own life. You don't need to start out looking like Barbie to have a happy ending.

What is important is not the wedding but the marriage; only somebody silly will be more concerned about one day and its finery than the marriage and its consequences.

Stop consuming so much trash and start reading books and watching shows that will make you happier.

This kind of story never gets dull. Plot twist over plot twist over plo—

I wish I read Agatha Christie's books sooner!

AHHH I'm so sad this is the last book that I got from The World's Favourite Agatha Christie. It has been a thrilling adventure to read these.

I'm not a fan of this kind of story because it tells you the truth about how cruel reality is. It makes me unhappy and scared.

You loved so hard and hoped so much and then you ended up with nothing. Children who no longer needed you. A husband who no longer wanted you. Nothing left but you, alone, and empty space.

This scene right here, I can perfectly picture the pain and sadness and loneliness in Marilyn. So heartbreaking.

Wow. This book speaks to me. I agree that every woman should read this.

By hook or by crook, i hope that you will possess yourselves of money enough to travel and to idle, to contemplate the future or the past of the world, to dream over books and loiter at street corners and let the line of thought dip deep into the stream.
