"Very Good Read. I wrote the author a letter asking if he would come to the bookstore I worked in at the time for a book signing. He actually wrote me back declining however he said he would mention my bookstore in his upcoming book which was this one. The store the little girl is taken to in the book is Walden books and is mentioned by name.
At the time I worked in Waldenbooks in the Lakehurst shopping center in Waukegan,IL. Walden books is a chain book store so he did not actually mention my specific location just the name of the book store."
"ok. so in the book mentioned repeatedly (like most everything else in the book - i could totally write a book and just repeat things over and over again. and use the word "very" 30 times before the noun.... ah "summer school." love that movie) is the phenomenon that time tends to right itself. so like if you were paralyzed or not born to start off with, you could pretty much count on ending up paralyzed or dead some time during the adventure. deany mentions this over and over, but for some reason he doesn't want to follow what he wrote, and in the book time actually doesn't right itself at all, and you can change things. like russia. and dying. dude, if this was "final destination" death would totally come after some of the characters, like hard core. with knives and electrical sockets and birds and glass. so. to sum up. if you are a former nazi you can stop time from doing stuff you don't want it to do even though the author himself says it's not possible and marry a writer who still has the use of all her limbs. the end.
i would like to apologize to everyone and especially to myself for writing something that makes no sense what so ever. nazis marrying people? really elizabeth? that's what you focus on? really?"
