lord of the flies, Buddy Read! :) [[Oct. 2022. ]]
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.

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.

I haven't formed a proper opinion yet . I guess after reading a few more chapters, I'll form an opinion

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.

My mom
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.
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

hello everyone i am back and i have just started reading alif the unseen (and by that i mean i'm literally only on the second page)

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.

for January"I am in for this buddy read. But I will start it on 11th Jan as I will be free from Send-ups by then. :)
Wonder is on my tbr for quite a long time. Heard it has been made into a movie now. I think it will be an amazing book. Can't wait to start! ^__^
