- Today in Novel workshop I basically got too excited about the novel we had to have read for class today.  So basically at one point in class I jumped into the convo because people were saying my favorite part in the book (which I adore) wasn't a satisfactory ending. So I jumped in and defended it.  And then they were like "This part was wierd too ( Read more... )

Lol, what book were you reading, may I ask? I remember when I did Jekyll and Hyde way back in first year at Uni and I babbled about it constantly to the point the tutor told me it was obvious I had read it before and should let other people speak. Only time it ever happened.

You know you want to buy Bronson ;) there is no sense in anyone talking you out of it xD

Yay for going home!

It is weird when people randomly talk to you, but at least it was an interesting conversation! P.s I am quite new to Skype if you wish another person to talk to ;)

The book is How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accent by Julia Alvarez. I didn't expect to like it, but I ended up really enjoying it. It does really cool things with time and structure (it moves backwards in time, and is a novel of connected short stories). And lol! It's fun when you get really excited about a novel... I haven't read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for YEARS. I should really reread it...

And interesting conversations are always fun! And awesome! My username is the_ninth_bow (like always :P) on Skype :D

I think I've heard of that book...I may have to check it out sometime ;) It's been years and years since I read Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde now too, I read it a bunch of times in a short period between my last year of high school and my first semester at Uni though xD

(I'm inseybugular on Skype btw, just in case you're wondering who the random person adding you is ;))
