Finally, after waiting for it to come out almost a year watched “Love, Rosie” the movie. A complete let down comparing with the book, but as a stand alone movie separate from this book it was a heart warming and feel wrecking story of two best friends who kept missing each other when it came to love. Obviously the movie ...
rothbourne:It’s scary how much I identify myself with one of these stories. Most people wouldn’t see how I can relate to it but I guess behind closed doors things are very different.

I realized that I know too many people who don’t know what its like to be in a crowed bus.
