#7: Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Johnathan Safran Foer

The only way I can think to do this review is in the form of a list:

1. This book was a weekend binge, but I had to stop reading at times because my heart hurt. 
2. Johnathan Safran Foer and Nicole Krauss are married and have a son. They live in Brooklyn. I wonder what kind of stories they tell him.
3. There are many sentences here worth at least an underline and an arrow exclaiming “I know! I know!”
4. New York City is a magical place and even if someone tells you that there is a lot of pain here, it is both true and false. 
5. I don’t want this to ever be made into a movie. Ever.
6. I kind of wish the characters of this book could meet those from Everything is Illuminated.
7. Once I thought I saw Johnathan Safran Foer sitting across from me at Chipotle eating a burrito. This was before I read his books.
8. I’m not sure if I’ll ever read this again. 

That’s all.
