Sigh...

I make bad decisions sometimes. So this story has a moral. That moral is to ALWAYS read the FULL book before recommending it to someone. My debate teacher gave me a book request two days before the last day of school. The book was pretty good (The Alchemist), but I got bored once I was done with the book. So, I found another book by the same author (Veronika Decides To Die) and read it online at two in the morning, as one does. But, since it was two in the morning, I fell asleep before I could finish the book. But what I read was really good, there was only one questionable line in the beginning that I thought would connect to something about the character's past, or mental illness. But no. And I did not know that at the time.

The next day, I recommended the book to earlier referenced teacher. I recommended the unfinished book. Two days later, I picked up the book again to finish it. I did NOT know it would be that *ahem* unholy. I mean, it actually did kind of make sense in context, but keep in mind that I recommended this to a teacher. Even worse, there's a chance I'll get the same teacher next year for English, since he teaches an elective and a core class... help me...

Luckily, the teacher hates me and won't pay any mind to my recommendation, though I do know he'll take them from some students.

{As a side note, I give the book a 6.5/10, the beginning was quite beautiful, then it took a nosedive.}
