- read Chapter 4+5 during lunch break
π¬ Takeaway so far is that Mr.Ross is a bad husband and teenagers are known to love discipline! They enjoy getting told what to do! Crave it, really! (I really oughta watch a documentary on this afterwards cause that went from 0 to Military way too quick)

is starting
- got this from a "3+1 free on used books" deal
- started reading this because I'm still a bit irked by some things in "those who leave and those who stay" and don't wanna pick it back up just yet ....but need a quick & easy read for the month of may (Goodreads challenge)
- plus point of filling a literary pop culture knowledge gap since I only know the (German) movie and so many people read this in school :D
