Everything was wrong, and she had no way of putting things right - that gave her a sense of complete powerlessness. (Veronika Decides to Die)

veronika decided to hide

Thursday, April 24, 2008

i’ve been trying to get hold of a copy of veronika decides to die but they don’t have it in gateway both national and fully booked.  they don’t have it in national-sm fairview either!  is there a hoarding of this book that i don’t know about?

i’ve read vdtd a couple of years ago when i was in college and i remember that i didn’t appreciate the story.  maybe i can’t relate to it back then.  siguro to better appreciate paulo coelho’s works, the reader has to have more experiences in life.  or siguro mababaw lang talaga ako.  hahaha.

so now, i just borrowed my officemate’s copy.  i haven’t sat down to really focus on reading.  i’m excited to read but i’m reserving it for the galera trip. 

reading veronika decides to die is very timely for me.  i think veronika and i have a lot of things in common.  everything is supposedly okay naman but just like her i feel that something is also missing.  what is missing?  i don’t know.  well, maybe i know but i just choose not to think about it.  quarterlife crisis ito!  hehehehe.
