Unfortunately, yes.

Ahmed  Ejaz (ahmedejaz) | 1783 comments I wanted to start this book little earlier this month. But I was so obsessed with finishing Rick Riordan's series that I had nothing in mind.

Abdullah Khalid | 808 comments @Hiba Don't say sorry. XD

Yes I guess it's us only.

How are you finding the book so far?

It's good. I'm on chapter 5. It's more fun to read about people you can relate to. What about you?

Drugs are cool and all, but have you tried not being a fucking disappointment? Now that's what I call cool.

I don't think dropping out is a good option.

genio

One day you will regret being a doctor or an engineer or an artist or any other job that will make you money

Every once in a while you will get into trouble

The only way to get out of that trouble is to bribe someone

Thats the harsh truth about life

One day you will wake up to find out that the majority is against you

One day you will wake up thinking that you are in the right but the world will think you are THE WRONG

Lol if i could talk like that

But i was kidding im in no mood of doing drugs and dropping out at freshmen year i mean i would drop out when i have a degree

I have in front of me an example of a guy who did drugs and is now what we pakistani call tabh o barbad

Btw that example is my brother

Of course nobody understands Bilal's sense of humor. he didn't mean it. It was what all of us think at some point in life. I mean who would actually drop out of school and do drugs.

message 3418: by Hiba (new)

Hiba | 89 comments Guyyss I finished it. Yayy!! What about everyone else??? Plus, anyone here interested in computer programming? The protaganist of Alif the unseen was a hacker, but the descriptions of coding and alograthims were extremely unclear and superficial.


message 3419: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Qazi | 741 comments I forgot about the buddy read and the fact that I had promised to take part after 15th. So next month Insha Allah.

God, I'm such an idiot

Hiba | 89 comments Amna wrote: "I will join next month.

How's the Buddy read coming along? Should I read it as well?"


Well it wasn't a buddy read considering only I was reading it. But Alif the unseen is overall a good book. A memorable one.

Saad Javaid (saadjavaid) | 9 comments Good read - any other recommendations?

Abdullah Khalid | 808 comments Thank you Hiba for suggesting the last month's buddyread XD . I enjoyed it.

Okay so , "Wonder" looks like the January's buddyread . If anyone has any other suggestions , then please suggest them . We can do the voting in that case. Otherwise we'll read "wonder" Wonder by R.J. Palacio
