A loucura e a incapacidade de comunicar-se. Entre a loucura e a normalidade, que no fundo sao a mesma coisa, existe um estado intermediario: chama-se ser diferente.

I read Veronika decides to die yesterday. I don’t know what was expecting but it wasn’t what I found when I read it. I watched the movie some time ago and I liked it, it wasn’t good but it wasn’t a terrible movie either, so I just thought that maybe the book was better and I would like it. Truth is ...
I just don't... get it.This is one of those book that many of my friends seemed to love but I didn't. I liked it, sure. It dragged in the first half and became boring but then it picked up pace in the second one. I kind of enjoyed it. And there are many things that annoyed me.Veronika's reasons to s...
