Wonder - R.J Palacio #Quote1

Woah, kinda miss this blog! I haven't written anything at all for quite a long time. I'm busy with stuff at college and here we go, get to the point.

Wonder by R.J Palacio got my 5 stars because this book has made me feel a really complicated feeling, and if i can say, the whole Via emotions is likely my own feeling that she described so well from the start.

If there's a book in front of me right now, the first thing i will love after finishing it is to list the quote(s). Not literally the first thing i do though because usually i spend time digesting it all over again. (if you know what i mean, lol)

Quote inside this book. The playlist, maybe..

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down
