My Literary Friends

One of my favorite quotes about reading is, " You know you've read a good book when you get to the end and feel like you've lost a good friend."

I totally feel that way every time I finish a book that I've really enjoyed. You've gotten to know the characters so well, and there's a sad sort of feeling that you don't have any time left with them. I've never been a big reader, but I do enjoy a great book every once in a while. Here is a list of some of my "friends" from my favorite books. See if you can guess what books they are from.

-Henry and Clare
-Edward and Bella
-John and Owen
-Amir and Hassan
-Sayuri
-Harry, Ron, and Hermione (easy one)
-Lena, Tibby, Carmen, and Bridget
-Rebecca Bloomwood
