Last night I was waiting on a file to upload. I'm terrible at waiting. My internet is also terrible...and requires much waiting. So, I'm becoming annoyed and look around for somewhere else to direct my attention when my eyes land on this book. Admittedly, I'm not terribly excited about reading it. Teen pregnancy isn't exactly my first choice in reading material, but I'm required to read this one. Since I'm waiting, impatiently, I might as well read a couple of pages so I can at least feel like I've gotten started. An hour and a half later, with my heart a little bit broken for this young man and my uploaded file completely forgotten, I turn the last page, thinking, "What? That's not the end! What happens when they...??"
Sometimes it is a good thing to read outside your usual choices.
