I just realized something that is completely and utterly random. It's about the book Sunday's at Tiffany's and my realization on why I picked up this book.
Have you ever read or watched the manga/anime Skip Beat? Yes, no? Anyway Kyoko has a childhood friend who she meets up with for a few days before he disappears and says they'll never see her again. Well obviously Kyoko runs into her childhood friend later in life. And oh, she thinks her childhood friend is a fairy and she also has an uncaring mother... Yeah, where am I going with this? James Patterson's book Sundays At Tiffany's is about a girl who has an imaginary childhood friend she meets up with until he disappears and says he'll never see her again (sound familiar) she does later on in life. Oh, and she has an uncaring mother.
Ok, so I had no idea whatsoever on why I wanted to read this book. When I heard the review something was nagging at the back of my head so I went and bought it. About 3 months after I bought it (and am now just reading it) I realize that I picked this book up subconsciously because it reminds me of my favorite manga Skip Beat. So, my point? If you love Skip Beat and want to read a book that is similar, read Sunday's At Tiffany's. And if you love Sunday's At Tiffany's and want to read a manga, get Skip Beat. Yep. But those might be the only similarities... I'll keep reading and update as I go along.
