Story of a Soul: The Autobiography of St. Therese of Lisieux by Thérèse de Lisieux
1.0
I am not finishing this book. Now that I have switched English classes, I do not plan on reading this again. As you an see, my feelings for this book have not changed. Everyone says how they admire Thérése so much. I just don't get it. She is extremely full of herself, and she is always crying at every little thing. She seems really spoiled, and it drives me crazy. Even when she says that she "did it for Jesus" she is still obsessed with herself. I just don't know what people like about her.
Ok. I do not like this book. Yet, I must read it. I continue to try and like it, but it is just not happening. I have to admit that reading the introduction (the first edition introduction) out loud is a little bit fun, but I am not really liking this book. I am reading this book for my English class, just my friend Madi and I. I have to say that I like how she used her mother's letters, it makes it sound less like bragging. And all of the details that she remembers are quite fascinating. All of the books that I have read this year for English have been true/based off a true story, which I find slightly intriguing. I would really love it if someone could actually convince me that this is an amazing book.
