WHITE OLEANDER IS MY FAVOURTIE BOOK EVAR. So cool that you read it. =D I personally liked Rena a lot. XD "You got nothing to lose but Visa Card, Happy Meal, Kotex with Wings." Hahaha.

Really? I loved the book. It was awesome. Next I'm going to watch the movie. Have you seen it? Oh yes, Rena was by far the coolest. Sure, she was sketchy, but you know, I think of all of them, she understood how life really was better than any of those other foster people.

No, the movie is much shorter and a little different than the book (e.g. Paul says his parents were druggies or something in a trailer which wasn't said in the book) and it doesn't have the time she's with Marvel (and Olivia), which I believe is one of the most important parts in the book, so I haven't really wanted to watch it. =/
