But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.


I liked this book - perfect summer reading.
This is the story of how that little voice in our heads can build or destroy us, about our decisions and inner demons, of love and necessity believing in it, believing in humanity.

I also liked Annabell and in many ways I could connect with her. Story made me thinking about my own decisions, how would I reacted on certain events.

But most of all I liked the message of the story: We are given the tools, but what we will do with them is entirely up to us. :)))

Ok...so let's see.

This book started really promising... but I have such a hard time with books like that. Books where all the girl can think of is her weight and how "fat" she looks etc. etc....

The other thing I didn't like, believe or whatever you want to call it, is the break up at the end of the story... it was so unrealistic.

I don't know what more to say...

All in all it was an okay summer read.
