BOOK: Girl in Translation

This book just drew me in at the shelf. I don't know why but I can tell you that I cannot imagine myself actually picking up this book normally. If someone had told me about it I would not be interested in the slightest. And yet, this book will stay with me for the rest of my life. The story, the emotions, the perspectives and so much more that is found in the story will not be forgotten.
While reading I find myself fighting the urge to cave in to the emotions. I tell myself; how can I give in when the protagonist doesn't give in? She doesn't let herself be taken over by the sadness of the situation, and neither will I. So I fight the tears and keep pushing through.
