Hey Lee, like I said I had to stick with it, and the parts I have been rereading first are in the last fifty pages since that is when it all comes to a head. But since it is such a short novel, the buildup is not really that long.
It's fun when a friend actually tries a recommendation, funner if they actually like it. Films come with all the machinery to be enjoyed and talked about by a lot of people at the same time, but sharing the pleasure of a particular book is a challenge. There are so many more interesting books and they usually require more time and always, more discipline than films.
Sophia:
Are anyone into the subject pedagogy? I usually try to read one chapter each day about the subject. And at the moment I am reading a book called A school for everyone, by Roger Säljö. I am sure majority would find this literature very boring and not as exiting as fiction, sc-fi or films, but I find this fascinating in my own little weird way. :)
Sason:
Love his name. Is it Säl-jö, or Sälj-ö? :laugh:

The first sounds like the sound of the seal (not the artist) öh...öh... and the other version sounds like the island someone trying to sell to his stupid friend who are willing to pay enormously. The real pronunciation is sälj...jö.

Hi Lee, No, nothing by Doyle. Are you a fan?
