Flowers for Algernon

Just finished reading this white shiny book. Just took me two MRT rides!

Ok...two very long MRT rides.

And half a lunch time. (and getting caught with a book during lunch cost me big time...but it was worth it.)

And thinking all along they should make a movie of it...and then reaching the back page and seeing that hey they DID already make a movie of it. People who are thinking I didn't really check it out properly...pat yourselves on the back.

It's...a...

Very Good Book.

Hmm...not quite sure how to put it. It's a very...unpretentious book? It just zooms in on the ideas it wants you to look at, without much coddling. The theme per dollar and thoughts-provoked per dollar ratios were especially heartening.

And it's nice and white and shiny too.
