Finding Home by Aine Kelley is awesome! A story of love, loss, betrayal and how two people manage to make it past all that BS. With the help of John Cusack and a boom box of course.The 80's were very important to me and I love that Sam had a habit of relating to 80's movies (Say Anything, Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink, etc).Sam has been betrayed by her past boyfriends and is absolutely NOT ready for another, but then she talks to her besties brother Ben on the phone one night and her interest is piqued.Ben is still mourning the death of his fiancee from two years ago and is in no place to move on, but when he speaks to Sam on the phone one night he realizes that she is stirring something inside him thats been closed since before the tragedy.A cute story of love with a Happily Ever After.Women everywhere want their happy endings and happily-ever-afters. That's what I want. I want the boom box over the head of the guy playing the song for the girl he loves. I want my Say Anything moment. Is that Rrally too much to ask?-Sam
