Happy swooning, everyone! With it being so close to Valentine's Day, I am excited to share with you guys my first fictional crush.
Now, this is a guy you probably remember from days long ago. He was brave and selfless and a bit of a budding bad boy with a heart of gold (he had a whole tortured artist vibe). And did I mention he suffered a brutal tragedy that gutted him and left me in literal tears (this was the first time I ever cried while reading a book.
That guy? Jess Aarons from BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA.
He was the first boy to make me swoon, the first boy to make me cry, and the first boy to leave me feeling hope and satisfied at the end of a book.
So, who was the first (fictional) boy to make you swoon?
And now for some fun - because when all else fails, a giveaway is always the answer:

I was just thinking about Bridge to Terabithia a couple of days ago--it also left a HUGE impact on me as it was the first book I ever cried while while too. My parents asked me what was wrong and when I told them, they were like, "Oh, we thought something was really wrong!" Well, something was--my friend who I had grown to love just died!!! Katherine Paterson is such a powerful writer!

ReplyDeleteFew weeks ago my girlfriend told me that she was fed up, so she packed her stuff and left me while I was taking a walk to cool off. When I got back, I was so messed up because I didn't even know what to do, it was like my whole life was coming to an end. That night I drove to a friend’s house and he was nice enough to give me a description of a man who did spells that could bring her back for me. He said this man brought her fiancée back to him after 2days. The man's email is emutemple@gamil.com, it was this man that then did a spell and brought Claire back to my life. She was now so humble and calm, she was respectful and lovely even more than i can imagine. This man is really strong and accountable. I never regret anything through him. meet him if you need help in your love life. visit his website you may find your solution there https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
