I am so glad to know that other people are reading it. It's one of those gems, you know? I am re-reading it right now and it's still as good as the first time I found it. Enjoy finishing the book and the movie is on Youtube if you want to check it out later. :D

Oh, how nice to see a picspam about this book/movie. I love this book so.

The biggest compliment I can give the movie is that I was genuinely pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Great job!

I wanna see this soooo bad. I've read the book, but every time I hit Blockbuster it's never on the shelf ;___;
I might have to buy it!

Any case, lovely picspam! It's further tempting me to buy it.

If you still have no luck finding it at Blockbuster or if you want to wait buying it, the whole movie is on Youtube! :D

Thank you so much for commenting.

It's fantastic. It was released in 2003, so it's been out for awhile, but you can find the whole movie on Youtube. :D

You must read the book! The narration and emotion in the book is so amazing. You see it in the movie, but it's so romantic in the book. I hope you get the chance to. :D
