I've just finished reading Jodi Picoult's "Keeping Faith" in just two days - it was so compelling that I never wanted to leave it and go somewhere else. Ian Fletcher - at first, I imagined him to be a weird, odd, perhaps even creepy, fat, middle-aged man with a balding head or something and really "typically" annoying and always poking his nose into business that he shouldn't. But, as the story went along, I realized that I must have fallen in love with him as a character - he had a totally different persona when he wasn't in the public eye than when he was. When he was with Mariah, he became this sweet, honest, truly handsome on both the inside and out, person. And he really did mean it when he told Mariah that he would do whatever it took to ensure that she got handed the custody of Faith. And he really did mean it when he was shocked that things were leaked out unexpectedly that originally caused Mariah harm to her reputation, etc. but were not done when he did know Mariah - they were hints and stuff like that that were done before he even realized that he had feelings for Mariah. I want to read "Change of Heart" now too, because he reappears in it!! Ahh ... Ian Fletcher ...
P.S. Am I supposed to read the books in order or not?

About Me
- Natalie
- I am a bright character, who is usually very cheery, funny in sarcastic ways and funny when I don't mean to be, and I would like to stand out but I am a shy person. Sometimes, I want to really do something but I don't end up doing it, or I only do the job (looking) half-heartedly, because I am too scared to let my real self go. Something that I would like to do later on would be to get rid of my shyness and express myself in my true ways. I want to be a better person - be nicer to people, but also be firm when necessary. I want to stop getting onto people's nerves for minor matters. When I grow up, I want to meet some famous people (mostly celebrities) whom I admire and love for what they do and for their down-to-earth personalities.
