Ok, so. Group B is gonna be in at least two sections because, i swear to God, my last books mass went up by the number of post it's I put in it. I'm sorry if everything but my quotes doesn't make sense... it has been a bad day coherency wise.
Now, this book is a book of poetry, kinda. The title of the post is the book title and the bolded titles are the poem/ chapter titles and who "wrote" each poem. If that makes any sense. Keep in mind this book is fiction and written by David Levithan.

My girlfriend is in love with Holden Caufield, Tyler
'And yes, Holden would keep those kids from

Minutes into hours.
Hours into days.
Days into years.
Years into possibility.
This will linger.'

Group A
So, I suppose most people will skip this post, but wait.
This post is important.

p. 87

p.149

p. 243
' "Amazing," Edward muttered. "How can someone so tiny be so annoying?"
Alice laughed. "It's a talent." '
p.268
' "That's a nice story," I said. Three pairs of eyes questioned my sanity. '
p.302
' "I want Carlisle to look at my hand. I think it's broken.... I punched Jacob," I admitted.
"Good"....
"I wish I'd hurt him"....

"As much as I have." I sighed. "Not enough apparently." '

Emmett blinked, and then burst into a roar of laughter. '

I sighed, "Show me the damn ring, Edward." '
p. 457
' "Well, even if she does get her way, we can keep it small. Just us. Emmett can get a clerical license off the Internet."
I giggled. "That does sound better." It wouldn't feel very offical if Emmett read the vows, which was a plus. But I've have a hard time keeping a striaght face. '
p.469
' I nodded, hoping my expression was tranquil enough to reassure him.
Alice shut the door in his face. '

I don't really know what to say. I've been thinking about what I want to post latly. It's hard to decide. In a few weeks I'll play with qoutes, but I have to finnish the book I'm reading first.
Anyway, I've really been into knitting this week. Have you ever knitted? It is fun. At first I only started to distract myself, but I actually enjoy it.
Tonks has been really nice to me lately. It's been nice. She is offically a year old (I think).
I'm eating cookies right now. You'd think cookies would bore me by now, but they don't.
My hair is wet, and I am cold. I can't wait until summer when walking outside drys your hair.
Now, I'm gonna go now. Bye.
