    Me too Madison Holden was such a complex character. You either love the book or hate it, and I for one loved it. I also am in love with Holden lol

    oh I forgot my favorite book is the bluest eye by toni morrison it's really good and is a quicker read than most of her books. the first thing I read from her is beloved when I was 15 and it was really difficult to read but I love her newer things.
