I couldn't wait until the very end of exams, so I bought it after English literature and read it over half term :smile:

I don't use duolingo, because of the mistakes I found in the German. It would not surprise me if mirroring errors abound in other languages.

Hmmmm... It's still okay I guess

You should read it! Soon! Saying that, I'm builfing up a long list of books that I've been recommended but I never get around to reading them, as I either read vigorously or sparsely. Like a bipolar book disorder... :tongue:

I'm building up a list too - last week I read all 7 Narnia books back to back, simply because I've left school and I can :smile:

How did you manage that! :eek4:

Well done though! :biggrin:

I think I'll be doing a lot of reading over the summer holidays!

I feel like I read really slowly, like I try to absorb all the meanings as I read something and have to take it slowly to check I'm not missing anything. Though I presume I actually read at an OK speed - I've had quite enough practice over the years!
