Brittle and thin.I am held up to the sun, and it shines right through me.I get written on, and I can never be used again.These scratches are a history. They're a story.They tell things for others to read, but they only see the words, and not what the words are written upon.I am but paper, and though there are many like me, none are exactly the same.I am parched parchment. I have lines. I have holes.Get me wet, and I melt. Light me on fire, and I burn.Take me in hardened hands, and I crumple. I tear.I am but paper. Brittle and thin.”I did really love this book, even with a 4 star! First, about the story. I was angered and annoyed the how the people (even Linus) treated these kids. People like that are a joke, so if you are one of them.. just know it is on sight. Aside from that, I adored the journey I had with this book. There were somethings a bit off, like how the romance blossomed between two of the characters... it seemed very... beige and rushed. Other than I was trying really hard not to cry at work, so yay for that!
