If a boy falls down in the woods and the girl he's deeply in love with doesn't hear it, did he make a sound--and more important, would she have given two shits if she had heard him? Apparently not. A tragic love story, like Romeo and Juliet, except Juliet, instead of offing herself, falls in love with another man and Romeo is left to die, alone in the woods. That is the life Albert Kim leads during the summer and fall in this desperately funny novel, which captures the agony, the mania, the kicking and screaming that define teenage existence. "We're something." Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before - David Yoo I really want to reread 24 Girls in 7 Days now, too, after having gone through this book. -8.57p.m, 25-6-09 |
