Yes yes, I was one of the students who took this class to fulfill my literature requirement. HOWEVER, I also chose this class specifically because after taking SPAN 312C with him (look at me promoting your other courses), I liked professor Beasley’s teaching style. Anyways, I have to say this course went by quite fast. Normally […]
BROKE MY BRAIN. Let me start off by saying that I didn’t dislike like the novel…I was merely confused by it and tended to get lost at times when I was trying to follow along with the storyline. Also, before I begin an “analysis” of this book I have to mention that I didn’t enjoy the […]
Before I somewhat complain about this book, I HAVE to point out that Professor Beasley spoiled this book for me before I even started reading. Despite the MAJOR spoiler, I carried on and still read the book like a good student. I only wish the spoiler he had given me was an indication that the […]
These were some messed up characters. Like I don’t even know what to think about them…or even about this book for that matter. Also, why is that we haven’t read a single novel yet with a normal character?? Like no matter what anyone says all the characters we’ve read so far have been messed up […]
Seriously, what in the world did I just read?? I mean, I’m all for books pushing boundaries and giving me a glimpse into the unexpected…but this one left me feeling so disturbed. I felt like I went through an emotional rollercoaster that delved deep into the darkest recesses of human desire. Like I enjoy reading […]
I hated this book. Hated it. I-I don’t even know how to describe my hatred for this book, there are no words to describe my feelings. If I could I would just end my blog post here because this pretty much sums up how I feel, but per the blog post requirements I shall continue. I truly […]
Wow, reading this was a rollercoaster of emotions. Maybe because I never imagined myself reading this novel anywhere aside from my house and yet I found myself immersed in the story, while being on vacation in Barcelona…where the story unfolds. It was such a surreal experience to be walking through the same bustling plazas and narrow […]
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. In fact it might even be my favourite book that we’ve read so far. The storytelling and imagery was done beautifully in the novel and I felt like it was the most realistic and relatable read so far.” It made me truly appreciate the resources and privilege I had growing up cause damnnn […]
Labyrinth. This story was a labyrinth of emotions and relationships, with an odd enigma in the center waiting to be discovered. Looking at the story the only adjective that comes to mind when describing Agostino as a character is strange. That was the first and perhaps only word I could think to describe the character of Agostino. He […]
I cried. The story, narration, imagery, everything about this book was so sad and touching that I couldn’t help but shed some tears as I read it. Perhaps the reason I felt so strongly about it is because one of my best friends passed away last September and I couldn’t help but think of her […]
