Theaidatour Pharmacy Xanax Ode to Billy Joe

book A small piece of Young Love Sublime (by Herman Raucher):

- What did you learn at school today?
-A did not talk to strangers.
He smiled, with that evil smile graciously and to sprout innumerable dimples, and her heart nearly paralyzed him.
- Do you teach that?
-Only in Mississippi. In Louisiana teach the opposite. So there is New Orleans.
He came forward and turned in front.
- High Bobbie Lee! I have to talk to you. She
Enzar 'bidding in another discussion on the old theme. (...)

- Bobbie Lee! We need to talk!
- I have to keep going! Get out of my hand and let me through, whathear? If you or I'll give you over the head with my English Literature ... And Thackeray is quite hard! Can you hear me?
"I hear you, but I do not. (...)

- I have 15 years! Can that you think I'm older, but Dad still considered a child.
ducked and kept walking. He stood again at his side.
father is very old. (...)

"Okay, Bobiee Lee. But I would say a girl your age and size, which was a compliment, "It should not be content with Benjamí company-which was a provocation. (...)

Ah! Young Love Sublime. I remember the day I lent the book, with a promise "You'll love it." I saw the cover and I said "That corny." Ehe fact that the book had almost twenty years old does little to pique my interest.
Still, that same Sunday afternoon I opened it and get the second chapter wanted to know more wrong. (What happened? What happened?).

Well, I write this to recommend the book.
What's it about?

Billi Bobbie Lee and Joe are dating. It is 1953. Bobbie Lee's father does not want her "knights to receive visits in two years" and that Billy Joe is not amused. Meanwhile, James, her brother develop his own history: It has an affair with Belinda, but Belinda is ... Well, Belinda is a "breakout artist" and his sexual relationship is more than anything else, but used to think.
A nice story, really beautiful. Funny and tragic at the same time ... Ah yes! And it's true! Anyone
Bobiee Gentry sounds? Their song "Ode to Billy Joe" was No. 1 for 4 weeks in 1967.
And a couple of years later someone wanted to make a film based on Herman Raucher wrote book, based on that song.
Even that ... if anyone has read the book, are not to be confused: BobieeGentry claims not to know why Billy Joe jumped.

I'm not obsessed ...
for nothing.
just read everything I could about the movie in English, I got the song, I appropriated the book, I told all my friends and others who are not, obsession to my friend translated the song, I've missed my family a thousand hints about how nice it would receive as a gift for XV film, I made a fanfic, I spent an afternoon looking for pictures, I wrote this ...
But I'm not obsessed!

No. Not at all ....
