Just finished reading flowers for Algernon, first time a book made me cry.

I started dreading the ending ever since Algernon started acting weird. Charlie's accepting what was going to happen to him in the form of the letter to professor Nemur followed by his gradual degradation was pretty heart wrenching to read. But I absolutely lost it and when Joe and Gimpy defended him in the bakery again. And everything after that only made me cry harder.

Here are some of my highlights from the book.

1. April 3-Finished Robinson Crusoe. I want to find out more about him but Miss Kinnian says thats all there is. WHY.

2. I passed your floor on the way up, and now I'm passing it on the way down, and I don't think I'll be taking this elevator again. So let's just say good-bye.

3. But I can't afford to spend my time with anyone-there's only enough left for myself.

4. Please... please... dont let me forget how to reed and rite...

5. P.S. please if you get a chanse put some flowrs on Algernons grave in the bak yard.
