In all honesty, I have never found a book that I have fell so deeply in love with before. People had always commented to me about their favourite novels and books and how they were emotionally connected to them, but in all honesty, I have always struggled to find such a connection with the black ink on these harsh pages. Until Giovanna Fletcher's Billy and Me.
I once read this thing which said something along the lines of 'nothing compares to that feeling when you discover a new book and it just consumes your life and you literally want to eat and breathe this book and when it's over you think about it for days and days and the idea of reading a new book repulses you because all you can think about is the flawlessness that was the book that you just read' and in all honesty, that was exactly my reaction to this story.
I laughed with this book, cried at the story and fell in love with the characters, particularly Billy Buskin. This story is one I absolutely adore and it is definitely one that I would say to be a must-read and I have bought it for a friend for Christmas. Perfect gift.
So, what is your favourite book? and if you have read Billy and Me what did you think? Leave a comment below telling us.
Don't forget to smile for those who love you.

ReplyDeleteMy favourite book is most likely Sherlock Holmes. He is arrogant he can not comprehend emotions doesn't understand people very well and can be complete and utter (Insert strong language here)... so he is basically a Victorian me...
ReplyDeleteI love books that you can relate to! That's probably why I love this book so much.
