Didn’t even need a bookmark for this one! I loved the writing- very descriptive and engaging without being too pretentious. It felt real. I didn’t want to stop reading. I wanted to see all of Nora’s possible lives. The over all message about free will/choices is of course very beautiful and full of optimism. My favorite quote was “The only way to learn isn’t to live.” Life isn’t meant to be understood, it’s meant to be lived.
The sick, twisted tragic part of me wanted Nora to die anyway but I guess that isn’t as inspiring. I wanted to see her ask Ash on that coffee date! Her leaving him and Molly made me cry.
