TOP BOOKS I WAS FORCED TO READ
School
The props of living in Montreal is that you get to study French. Huit Clos (No Exit) defines hell as being forced to live with someone you love for eternity and watch them love someone else. Talk about self-destruction!!
My English teacher didn't lag behind either, we had to act part of The Scarlet Letter in class. Which is one of the reasons, I loved Easy A. Can't help but wonder if someone got that idea from doing this exercise.
Emma Stone looking awesome |
Friends
But you say, how can a friend force you to read a book? Well, they leave it on your nightstand and then call you about it. On the plus side, The Witch of Portobello didn't disappoint. It taught me that it's okay to wake up, put on some music and silly dance till you drop. It's called dancing therapy. And if you do it, people will join you. Next thing you know, you'll have a crazy dance cult with your boss and get promoted.
I loved Scarlet Letter, I wish we had read that in school instead of some of the crap we actually read.

Guess I got lucky ;)
DeleteI read one book in French during High School - don't remember the name of it but I'm pretty sure it was a children's or teen's book since it was only level 3 french class :) Don't think I'll ever do it again because I don't remember much about the language.
ReplyDeleteI loved Scarlet Letter too - Makes me want to go back and re-read it now that I'm out of high school and college. I thought the movie was a fun play on the story!
it would be nice to re-read. I don't remember it much either.
DeleteI loved Easy A. I haven't read Scarlet Letter but I really, really want to!
ReplyDeleteYes! The book is more traumatic O_O
DeleteI haven't read/watched any of these. Great list though!

Thanks for stopping by :D
DeleteEasy A is a great film. I enjoyed it more than the Scarlet Letter Adaptation starring Demi Moore.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the movie was so so. That guy used to punish himself too much :s
DeleteI can't believe I forgot about the Scarlet Letter! I really liked that in school! Easy A was really funny as well!
ReplyDeleteGreat list!

It's 228 pages O_O I was impressed the teacher gave us such a small book. Plus it was really good, lol.
