Well .... I didn't see that coming
We've read this book for school, and since we're a bit under time pressure, I finished it quite fast ig ... but I don't think that was the only reason for the end of it to feel rushed.
In my opinion there was not enough time to process everything that was happening so suddenly.
Another thing:
Metaphorically speaking, I have died of second-hand embarrassment multiple times while reading .
Some parts of the lovestories were just too much. I also didn't get why Chris just forgave Knox for what happend at the party, they didn't even talk about it properly. WHY? (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ)
However, overall it wasn't tooooooooo bad though, I liked Mr. Keating's lessons and I think most of them can be important for life. English is my 2nd language, therefore I'm unfamiliar with English poetry so I'm also curious to see what we'll talk about it in class :)
(I don't think I want to watch the move tho)
