Has anyone else been deeply emotionally effected by a book? If so, help me get through this.

Thanks for your post. It is really weird because about half an hour ago I decided to read Norwegian Wood, just because I saw the title somewhere and it spoke to me somehow. Shpooky!

How to make Wombat Sushi:
1. Take six Australian dancers and one singer who can’t seem to get along.
2. Add a pinch of stupidity, a dash of naïvety and loads and loads of alcohol.
3. Make sure the mixture contains absolutely no self-restraint.
4. Pour into a Japanese club and simmer for three months.
Caution: Definitely contains nuts!

Coincidentally, I've just finished reading "Hold my Hand" by Glenys Carl. Has anyone else on Booktalk read it? It is about a woman whose son goes on holiday to Australia and is badly beaten, leaving him brain damaged. Its different to other stories about hardship - maybe its the way she writes - but the way things just fall in to place as she needs them is quite amazing. It has left me feeling very emotional, although it hasn't affected me the way Thorn Birds did or the way wallinthewell is feeling. It will be a stand-out amongst all the other books I have read and I've already started another book.
