Noughts and Crosses- Malorie Blackman The book Noughts and Crosses is a sitting on the fence sort of book for me. The writing of it hooked you in and made you think but I absolutely hated what happened in the end. The plot was good but as I said I didn’t like some things that occurred during the novel‚ like the fact Callum dying made me want to scream and rip my hair out (I did restrain myself by the way). But the fact that I did want to do that was because you grew attached to the characters‚ as

Lady Macbeth is one of Shakespeare’s greatest and most intriguing female characters. She is evil‚ loving and witch-like all at the same time. However‚ during the play we see her in two different ways. At the time when we first meet her‚ she is a brutally violent‚ power wanting witch‚ and later on she turns to a shameful suicidal grieving woman.

I was worried that the world of the Shadowhunters would not capture my imagination the same way it did when I was sixteen reading City of Bones for the first time. While I enjoyed The Infernal Devices‚ it did not live up to the first trilogy for me. It seems as if The Dark Artifices is going to be the same way‚ thoroughly enjoyable but not as good as the original. While my opinion might change as the other novels come out‚ Lady Midnight was a great read‚ but just didn’t hold me in the way that The

What intrigues me most about the poems of T.S Eliot is the subtle delicateness of his writing and yet it is delivered with amazing strength and profound depth. In certain poems‚ I felt that Eliot wrote in a rather impersonal‚ detached dry tone. However a lot of his poetic lines are brimming with attitude. His general tone is quite understated. However this only serves to sharpen the impact on the reader’s feelings. I felt his poetry was a type of aesthetic despair. While registering a despairing

i chose to base my “Boys of Blood and Bone” presentation around the theme of death and grief.

Andrew Lansell fought for Australia in France in 1917 him as well as most
