17…. Six is average? Really?

30. But there are a few I’ve never heard of on here that I desperately want to try, now…and a few classics I’ve been meaning to add to my library. Huzzah!

22. Huh, okay. 

I’ll have to read more. 

12. Damn. Not into the classics, I am.

I’ve had a handful of heartaches, it’s true
But would someone please enlighten me—
As to why my heart beats more painfully
For unreal lads in films and books?



I have finished Paper Towns. Not the best John Green book I’ve read though. :<

I really should not have taken you to that bookstore. It was my special place. Taking you there made it our special place, but now whenever I go there without you (which is basically all the time, because you’re so far away) makes me feel miserable instead of happy the way it used to.
