Reading @ MindSay

I waited a couple of days to post my entry about this book because the very day after I mentioned that I was going to write about it, Dylan Klebold's mother was on tv talking about the years since the Columbine tragedy. It has to have been some difficult years for all of the families and former students involved. So I had to reconsider the post a bit.

There's a person that I only know through the book site GoodReads. I have never actually had a conversation with this person. She randomly sent me a friend request one day and I accepted it, noticing she had an interesting (to me) reading list and that our tastes in books were remarkably similar. I regularly see her reading updates and always marvel at how a stranger I've never met or talked to can be on the same wavelength, and quite literally on the same page as me. I find cool books from scanning her list, and I've noticed from time to time she's added some of my books to her "to read" list as well.

Recently her booklist has changed a little in tone...books on coping with divorce suddenly started appearing. And today, I received an e-mail update from GoodReads saying she had added a book on cooking for one. I couldn't help but feel saddened. It isn't really my place to say anything to her, it isn't my business and we have never exchanged a word, only book lists. But I wish I could say, whoever you are, wherever you are...I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. I suppose there is the possibility that she was looking at/finding books for someone else, perhaps a close friend or relative, but somehow, I just know. And I feel bad.

Of course, life goes on and I imagine her list will probably change again sooner or later. Life has more than one chapter, after all...I can only wish her well, and hope her story has a happy ending.
