That being said, it was one of the better books I read in high school.

Yes, I think it was done on purpose. Those little touches are what make the book so great. Everything has a connection. 2000 words on that!! Eeek!
It was 2000 words about 3 symbols and how they were all connected. The green light, the flower symbolism and something else that I can't remember right now. I got a great mark on it...that's all that matters

i'm currently reading a book called "geometric measure theory and functions of bounded variation". does that count too?

otherwise the last book i've read was one of Terry Pratchet's Discworld books. always good for a laugh.

I am now reading a book called "fifteen love" By robert corbet. It is a typical teenager book, Its like a diary about two 15 year olds, One a boy and one girl and they fancy eachother but wont let eachother know (yet) And it is so funny to see the way how each sex think so differently and how thay act. Here is what it say on the back of the book:

MIA thinks boys are immature.
They only use one percent of their brain
They only ever talk about cars and sport
They only ever think about sex

WILL has no idea what girls talk about.
He wishes he had a tape recorder and a hidden microphone.

Fifteen love is a funny, up-and-down story about a boy and a girl who fancy eachother, A viola and a tennis racquet, Family and friends, Flirting and true love.
