"And for me: for me you have been everything"

Yesterday I finished The Time Traveler's Wife after captaincatapult mentioned it in a post. HOLY CRAP that was a fantastic book. The way those two loved each other is so real and deep. There was just one tiny part I found unnecessary at the end but that part is easy to ignore. But I really hate when it's not written that Henry has black hair until 150 pages into the book; I was picturing him with BLONDE HAIR. Then I had to force myself to imagine black hair but I couldn't because I already had this image in my head. This happened in Twilight too. For the longest time I pictured Alice with long reddish/orange hair and Rosalie with dark brown hair. How weird is that?

What to read next? I'm REALLY feeling like reading The Lovely Bones. Unless someone has any other suggestions? I have about 20 books in my room that I want/need to read but as always, I want to read what I don't have. I was going to read Atonement next but I'm not sure I'm in the mood for it.

PS How awesome is the name Alba? SO COOL!
