maFeels

I finally had the time to read Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell.



I finished the book in less than 8 hours last Sunday.

I didn't think I could finish the book this week but what do you know? the story had me hooked.

what kills me was the Park character was half Irish and half Korean and the Eleanor character was half Danish and half Scottish. 
Like
WHAAAAAA!!
especially cPark atu lah. I just gave him Onew's face. HAHAHAH [because the further I read, the more Onew-ish he became; (spoiler alert!) he wore eyeliner and how Eleanor thought he looked unsettling. I thought Onew looked ...very unsettling with eyeliner too, *ketawa smpi kluar aing mata*]
and gave Eleanor my fav character (as in my own made up character), Sasha's, face. Sasha is actually Irish with red hair and green eyes. Eleanor had 'big' red hair with dark brown eyes.
Like, if I have Professor Lockhart's 'bravery', I could wiped Rowell's memory and claimed Eleanor & Park as my own. MUAHAHAH
But I'm no Professor Lockhart. I is not a wizard.

hahaha 
anyway,
I cried several times reading this. I mean, I didn't even cry reading John Green's the Fault in Our Stars! can you imagine?
maybe because Eleanor character's remind me of my own; the family background history, the bodily insecurities (or general insecurities for that matter) and being in love with someone so much but know they don't deserve us.
I can just relate to her and whenever the situation got too much to be real, I cried.

Gosh, Rainbow Rowell did the same to me when I was reading her Fangirl book! 
this woman is the master of ma feels!!

I wonder how you pick your fav author?
I'd pick Rowling out of loyalty right now but to be honest, she isn't the only one anymore.
and I think that's ok.
