First Reading Journal in a Long Time..

Hey everyone,
So, I decided to do my reading journal a little early so I can keep reparing for our upcoming PoLs. I just started a new book, but I haven't really gotten that into it yet, so I'm gonna talk about a book I read during break. It's called As Simple as Snow by Gregory Galloway. This book is kind of confusing in the end, but also interesting. As Simple as Snow like a mystery book because all of a sudden a girl name Anna Cayne suddenly disappears. No one knows where she went and she never left anything behind. The only thing that the police found was a neatly folded dress next too a hole in the frozen river that cuts through town. The main character which is also the narrator is Anna's boyfriend, and supposedly he has all the answers to where she went. So, he tries to figure it out, but he can't. What's kind of weird about this book is you never know what's the narrators name. So, it's like a huge mystery to us. So, since the book got my interest, I went to the website, and registered it to send me a clue to where Anna Cyane went. A week later, I got this email. All it said was: Forever Breathes the Lonely Word. It was just that, and attached to it was a picture of half a guy's face with a pinkish-orangish background. That's it. I was like "OMG, that's it!" But I decided to do some research on it. I fond out that "Forever Breathes a Lonely Word" is the name of an alternative rock record released in 1986 by a British band named Felt. That's all I found though, which was kinda sad. I don't know if there's any more clues like this, but that clue led me to nothing.
:( So, I guess it'll still be a mystery to me where she went, but you never know, maybe something will pop up soon.
