That was good. I adore Truman.

Review to come tomorrow.

I want to be Patsy (Truman's mom) when I grow up. She's the best mother EVER.

"Oh my God," Truman said from the stove. "The Birds. I love this one."

Weird, I was just talking to one of my sons about The Birds yesterday, telling him how Ed McBain, aka Evan Hunter, wrote the screenplay. He borrowed one of my Ed McBain hardcovers for that reason.

Today I'm reading where Truman and Mike are watching the movie.

Truman couldn't begin to hope to hide from the world who he really was. And Mike? He was so deeply hidden no one would guess who he really was.

How can parents do that to their kids? Isn't love about accepting? Loving people as they are, faults and all? God know's nobody's immune from making mistakes.

You'd think.

There was snickering, and Truman tried to pretend the cutting remark didn't bother him. But it did - it always did, no matter how secure he became in his own skin. It wasn't so much the assault on his masculinity that hurt - even Truman had to admit he was about as masculine as Miley Cyrus - no, it was more the fact that it felt like someone wanted to hurt him. On purpose.

Poor Truman. I just want to hug him.

I'm finally sitting down to read it.
