I know this is sort of a medley of random songs, but this is the playlist I made for TFiOS. You may disagree on it, and if you really want me to explain why I picked a certain song, go for it. I have no problem explaining. I loved the book very deeply, and it was natural for me to find songs that I felt fit.

One of the things I loved most about this novel was John Green's ability to capture what it feels like to love someone and to lose someone. There were many experiences in the novel I could not relate to. But if you've ever loved someone, you can agree with me that John Green expressed it perfectly. I cried for at least an hour straight while reading this book. Do you know why? His words, his story, and his characters were so real that I felt like I was losing someone I love. When someone writes, sings, or makes a film or TV series about love and they do it right, I can't help but relate. I can't help but deeply feel, while I am reading it, the feelings of love I have for someone else and how I would feel/have felt in whatever situation is being portrayed. Losing the person I love is no exception, and some of the few things that never fail to make me cry in fiction (if portrayed well) are losing a best friend, a soul mate, or a close family member.
If anyone really wants to know my whole feelings on this point, I may make a post later. I may write a full review and post it on my tumblr, lisamarieskeys.tumblr.com. Or you can just ask me and we can discuss it. I love discussing books. Currently, Seth and my friend Elise are still in the process of reading it, and I know they will give me full opinions prior.

If Nat were a serial killer, (aka how to hate)
Since I'm finally writing again, I'm proud to say that this book is what The Four Letter Word would have been like if Nat had acted out more homicidally than suicidally. Hannah Ryan resembles Nat in almost no way in lifestyle, because she and her mom are extremely close and call one another every day once Hannah goes away for her freshman year of college. But they share something in personality that people always seem to miss about my characters: they're both artistic and reasonable/logical at the same time. Everyone who loves Nat does seem to forget that he excels at mathematics as much as he does writing; but I assure you, it won't be misse
Post-Christmas Winter Things
Since we just got through my favorite time of the year, it's a good time for lots of updates. What we're dealing with here, my friends, is actually a classic case of what they called "adulthood." It's exactly what you worry will happen when you're a kid, actually: that you'll turn into the kind of person who swears, drinks alcohol, does drugs, has sex/a relationship, hates life, and is boring and only cares about work and not fun. This is what every kid imagines when they're young; I know I was in a deep hatred of even teenagers never mind adults when I was 12 and younger.
But it's not that we all universally get swept up in those things, ne
I can't believe it (with a survey at the end)
Sometimes I honestly can't believe how much time has passed. How much things have changed. I travel almost every weekend and when I do I listen to my iPod. Playlists. I have a Reminds Me of People playlist, a Playlist of My Life, a Macey Songs playlist, a Dancing playlist, NAT playlist, CDs from people playlists, and a few shorter ones. I sit and I listen and sometimes I like to remind myself of all that has come before this, now. I need to remember how I got here. I need to remember what is important and why. It hurts to think about the people who have walked out of my life, the people who have died (especially my mom and Mary), and the peop
It's time to go back.
So I'm close to leaving for college again. Very close. It's days away. Did I mention that I'm a terrible packer? I tried to pack. It turned into a fashion show/me putting together outfits. I really wanted to find the button that was missing on my old JohnnyWishes shirt, and I found it, so now I can wear the shirt again (for me, this means like in the next two days).
I'm really looking forward to this year. I think that a lot of good things will happen. Recently when I was in a particular frame of mind (let's just call this the frame of mind where people say things that often make absolutely no sense) I kept obnoxiously telling Seth that her

I finished off a box of tissues and had to take off my glasses because I was crying so much by the end of the book. To me, though, it wasn't so much that I was relating to the characters and their feelings; it was more of the possibility of what happened in the book happening in my own life. I put the book down (with about twenty or so pages left) and spent a good five minutes crying just over the possibility of having someone I love die-- I literally (ha) had to immediately talk to my girlfriend before I could finish reading the book just to ensure myself that she was still there.
As I like to put it, John Green is a sadistic genius when it comes to writing.
