30% of the way in and I was sobbing... to be honest I didn't really stop sobbing at any point. I likely would have read this faster had I not needed breaks in between some of the chapters. I didn’t expect the feelings, the tugs on ...

Eleanor & Park -- a library recommendation -- a book that was delightful about two weird asian kids finding love in the scary parts of their teenage years. I enjoyed it.
