Thoughts Before Reading: Everything Leads To You, Nina LaCour

Synopsis: A wunderkind young set designer, Emi has already started to find her way in the competitive Hollywood film world.
 Emi is a film buff and a true romantic, but her real-life relationships are a mess. She has desperately gone back to the same girl too many times to mention. But then a mysterious letter from a silver screen legend leads Emi to Ava. Ava is unlike anyone Emi has ever met. She has a tumultuous, not-so-glamorous past, and lives an unconventional life. She’s enigmatic…. She’s beautiful. And she is about to expand Emi’s understanding of family, acceptance, and true romance.

I bought this book last summer and I haven't picked it up yet. John Green recommended and I thought that if John Green liked it then I will like it.
I had no idea that it was about a lesbian character. Not that, that matters. I will admit when I did find out it was kind of a turn off for me and now I kind of feel like an asshole for thinking and saying that. One of our friends recently came out to us and I realized that a person's sexual orientation shouldn't change the way you feel about that person or your friendship. Maybe she'll even read this book.
For some reason I have been reading a lot of contemporaries lately. I think it's time to take a break from Kristin Hannah and read some YA contemporary. I also need to be reading some books that have been on my TBR pile for a while. Also it's about movies and who doesn't love movies?

This video has nothing to do with the book but I watched it the other day and I want to post it. I think it's so beautiful. It's so much better than 'The First Kiss'. It proves that love is not really about being physical. Did I really just type that? It's so much more than that. It's just powerful the fact that you can look at someone's eyes for four minutes and become closer to someone.
