As I have more free time during the week now I'm at college, it means that I have more time to do one of my most favorite things...reading.
While trying to adjust to college life, I decided to read one of my all time favorite books, Where Rainbows End by Cecilia Ahern.
Where Rainbows End is about a boy and girl, Alex and Rosie who are best friends and are neighbours until the age of 16, when Alex moves to Boston, USA with his family as a result of his dads new job, leaving Rosie behind back in Dublin, Ireland.
The story follows the best friends through letters and messages sent between them from the age of 4 and into their adult life, through the twists and turns along the paths of their lives and the problems they face, until they get the chance to be with each other once again.
I enjoyed reading the book as it reminds me of my own friendship with a friend I have also known since the age of 4 and how now we have gone to separate colleges, it's important to stay in contact with each other no matter how each of our lives plan out. I always saw my friend as an older brother that would always be there if I needed someone to talk to, confide in and help me, but not being in the same college and them not being there and seeing them day to day makes you realise how much you really miss them and value their friendship.
By reading Where Rainbows End makes me all the more determined to stay in contact with friends more.
