It's something of a slow burner, I haven't touched it for a couple of days and don't feel that desire to read it like I did with The Kite Runner etc.
But I shall persevere! I'm using it as my further reading for A Level.

Gatsby is a book that I am finding rather annoying for some reason, it feels like its taking forever, granted we are reading it as a class, making it a bit difficult to speed through anything.
But the opulence is rather enticing.

I read The Kite Runner last year. I thought it was wonderful. I couldn't put it down and for days after it played on my mind. I love when a book gets to you like that. I haven't had that type of reading experience for awhile.

Me neither, it's such a strong novel, I really loved reading it.
But having to writ about 'How Hosseini tells the story in Chapter 2' is really taking the shine off.
