As a perpetually single person, I greatly appreciate books that take friendships as seriously as romantic relationships. As the main character states, friendships are a lot like relationships. At times you will sleep next to that person, you will feel hope and loss with that person, you will eat hundreds of dinners with that person, and you feel a sense of responsibility to that person. From beginning to end, this was another one of those books that speaks truths about life in a way that wraps it all up. There were a lot of "Ah ha! THAT'S the meaning of life!" moments. My favorite philosophical statements dealt with the themes of relationships over time. Does everything run on a loop? Is the beginning as important as the end? Are you the same person if that friend is no longer in your life? Do you exist as a separate entity, or as the sum of the parts of your life and your relationships with others? Favorite Quotes: "A person is not a suitcase, with a finite number of items to unpack. A person is a world. Look at any photograph - of a stranger, your father, your best friend. Sometimes the mystery is all you can see." "You know...a happy ending isn't really the end. It's just the place where you choose to stop telling the story." "All at once it strikes me that as well as I know Sonia, I know only one version of her - that all you know of a life are the places where it touches your own. Under the fluorescent lights of the waiting room I'm catching a glimpse of the places where I don't exist. It's strange and diminishing, like looking through a telescope at the stars." "Once you know the end of the story, every part of the story contains that end, and is only a way of reaching it."
