People think it's such a hard read, but it's really just a soap opera with lots of characters, people falling in love, fighting for love, dying for love.
I want to be in love like that someday. I want my husband to love me the way Prince Andrei loved Natasha.
I ended up hanging out with a girl named Eleanor who I'd known from my days at PS 22, though we'd gone to different middle schools.
Eleanor had always been a really smart girl —a little bit of a crybaby back then, but nice.
I'd never realized how funny she was (not laugh-out-loud Daddyfunny, but full of great quips), and she never knew how lighthearted I could be.
Eleanor, I guess, had always been under the impression that I was very serious. And, as it turns out, she'd never liked Miranda and Ella.
She thought they were stuck-up. I gained entry through Eleanor to the smart-kids' table at lunch.
It was a larger group than I'd been accustomed to hanging out with, and a more diverse crowd.
It included Eleanor's boyfriend, Kevin, who would definitely become class president someday; a few techie guys;
girls like Eleanor who were members of the yearbook committee and the debate club;
and a quiet guy named Justin who had small round glasses and played the violin, and who I had an instant crush on.
When I'd see Miranda and Ella, who were now hanging out with the super- popular set, we'd say “Hey, what's up,” and move on.
