I surely do hope you approve, Ms. Lisa. :) My second choice was Such Sweet Sorrow, from Romeo and Juliet.

This is one of those times when you read something and you just go perfect, I approve of this so, so much.

[truexillusions]

*beams* I'm glad you approve.

My other choices were 'And Greater Wonders' and 'To Burn Bright', but the one I picked stood out the most followed by Such Sweet Sorrow.

[rose_invisible]

Romeo and Juliet is overdone! And I don't recognize the other two. :shy but I do like To Burn Bright as a saying in general. I hope you win, little Val. ♥

btw omg Willow.

[truexillusions]

Orl. Ay, and greater wonders than that. [As You Like It]
-And Greater Wonders

"O! she doth teach the torches to burn bright". - (Act I, Scene V).
[Romeo and Juliet]
-To Burn Bright

And the one I chose is from Measure For Measure

lol How far are you in Willow? BTW Read 'By The Time You Read This I'll Be Dead' by Julie Anne Peters.

[rose_invisible]

Ok, in their actual context, Greater Wonders trumps Burn Bright.

Just a couple chapters in. Willow is sitting with Claudia and some others on her free period at school after seeing her brother crying the night before.

And ok, what's it about? Add it to my GR shelf thing.

[truexillusions]

I think I did.

It's about a girl planning her suicide. It's just... really good.

[rose_invisible]

Ooooh cool, I'll read it after I finish Beautiful Creatures. I want to read Wintergirls too. It's about two girls with eating disorders.

[truexillusions]

Yeah I've heard about Wintergirls. It doesn't sound appealing to me.

[rose_invisible]

I just realized I called a book about suicide cool. o.O

[truexillusions]

Ha. It's okay.
