The Girl With a Pearl Earring & The Virgin Suicides I

[toric13]

I'm re-reading The Girl With a Pearl Earring to write my college essay.

I'm also reading The Virgin Suicides. I like how the daughters, though they are living, breathing humans, even gritty and told to be gritty in the book, are still so ephemeral. They're considered demigods, and yet I know girls like them. Terrible parents like them

I wanna read Virgin Suicides. Would you recommend it?

[toric13]

Sure. It's an easy read. I'm halfway through it, and I never, ever read anymore because I suck. You can borrow/have it when I'm done. I got it at Goodwill for a quarter.

Fletcher says he'll get you the CDs or whatever it was precisely soon, he's been without internet for a while.

Aww. Poor Fletcher. :(

But tell him Thank You!

Hmmm. I'll have to check out The Virgin Suicides then.
