So dreamy! While reading this I found my own dreams becoming more vivid and getting confused with actual memories. Awesome.

This book was excellent. I loved that the whole book had a very specific mood to it - cold, windy, salty. While the movie was also pretty fantastic, the book allows for so much more depth in the characters, and poor Quoyle is just so devastatingly pathetic. It's awesome. It also makes me want to visit the cold, blustery east coast of Canada.
