ecstatic.

I finished Murder in Mesopotamia!
I wouldn't have guessed the ending; it's a bit (way too) far fetched. I don't believe anyone can be that.......crazy? desperate? insane?
Yeah, you know what I mean. But it's still good, it's crazy how authors of detective novels can think of these. I wonder if any of them were actually real murderers who thought out everything and got away with it, I mean they certainly had the brains to carry out a nice murder.
Okay, now that's just a scary thought: Agatha Christie running around and stabbing people.


Anywai, my next book is The Reader by Bernhard Schlink, the book that the movie (2008) of the same name was based on, with Kate Winslet as the lead actress. After this I still have another book I borrowed from the library, but I borrowed it based on its appearance so I might end up not reading it, since a) the books are due in like next week, although might be able to renew it, b) we have that English wide reading assignment to do, and even though the novel part is due in Term 2, I still need to prepare for that, c) I need to find a time to read Lord Sunday, at this rate- a very long time away.


Okay, so so far I'm about 2/3 of the way into the book and let me just say: don't read this book. I haven't seen the movie, but I thought it sounded good, and well, the book...it doesn't suck suck, but I definitely do not want to read it again. It's hard to explain, but the author just carries on and on, like overall the story is interesting, but each chapter is not at all interesting by itself. Like maybe every 5-10 chapters are interesting, but the bits inbetween the interesting parts are just homicide. seriously. I really need to ge tthis book over and done with. I'm so close to the end I think I have onli 6 chapters left? Yeah...don't read it.


So, what's up with this avalanche of assignments lately?
English Practice Essay, English Essay Test, my science class's Spinal Cord Research Assessment, Science Research Log, English Film Submission, have to read the PD book, and our History Site Study, which I can delay until after week 7.
But still, all the others... that's crazy. How am I gonna cope?


God...please...help me.
