Summary: My Comfort Book
Comment: I read this book first when I was 11 years old. I was browsing through the young adult section (feeling I was at the time far above the intermediate readers area) and this title popped out of me. It was unlike any of the other books there, and I decided I needed to have it. Immediately I was drawn into the book, and after reading it the first time I knew I loved it. In the past 5 years, I've read the book several times. Each and everytime I read it, some new insight and new wisdom speaks to me. It wasn't until a few years later that I realized the parallels to the greek myth, and even now more ingenius parallels pop out at me. It is simply the most heartfelt and beautiful story I've ever read, simple, short, but even as I grow older, and pieces of classical literature 1000's of pages long fill my mind, this book continues to last as my very favorite. Of any book I've ever read, it's touched my heart more deeply and fully than anything else. Everyone should read this book.

Summary: This is a beautiful sad story.
Comment: I read this maybe two years ago and only just now (since I am taking a classical literature course) do I appreciate the parallels to the Greek myth of Orpheus. I finished the book in one night. It made me cry.
