I had a sudden memory of a book I loved so much when I was younger and had the sudden urge to find it and re-read it. I found it and I re-read it. Thunderwith.

I remember vividly re-reading this book over and over again when I was roughly eleven years old (when it was originally released). I loved everything about it and absorbed everything I possibly could from every single page.

Whilst it wasn't as good as I remember it when I younger, I can understand my attachment to it. It was poignant to my childhood and everything that I was feeling at that stage of my young life. I did shed a tear or two re-reading it back this week as I understood facets of my younger self I had outgrown.

It will forever be an important book to me and an important part of my story and growth into who I have and still am becoming.

overrated. just couldn't get into it.

finishing this book was a chore... i shouldn't have even bothered.
