Tess of the D’Urbervilles – Thomas Hardy. The book and our love-hate relationship. My A level English Literature began with my teacher Mr Knight handing me a book and telling me to read it. He started with giving us advice that “you’ll hate it before you love it”, and me being the book worm that I am, I left feeling very confused with the philosophy that you either love or hate a book. 7 pages in, I took this philosophy and decided that I hated this book. The language was difficult and with it being set so far in the past, it was hard to understand what the narrator was talking about. After chatting to classmates, I realised that this was the general consensus on the ‘first phase’ of the book. Once we began reading the book together in class, I would tolerate the book but only because Mr Knight would explain anything we didn’t understand – but I still couldn’t wait to be done with it. We finished the book with time to spare before the exam, the ending left the whole class in silence. The bell went off, and we were all left feeling rather confused. This book that I’d despised for so long was over, all I had to do was revise and for some reason, I felt sad. Not because I could truly relate to the book or any of the characters, and not because I think I even particularly enjoyed the book – but as a female, it affected me. Seeing how far women come and knowing how far we still

had to go left me with a mixture of emotions, and though this is the book I’ve enjoyed the least – it’s an important read.

The Keepers – An original Netflix show. When I began watching Ryan White’s show “The Keepers’” on Netflix, I thought it was one of those mindless programmes you have on while you do your work. It was in the ‘recently added’ section, I hadn’t heard anyone talk about it much, so I presumed that it wasn’t going to be any good. By the end of the first night, I had watched 3 episodes. I messaged my friend about this new programme I was hooked on, she came over and I had to re-watch the first three episodes – at this point, it was 2am. For the next 5 consecutive nights, she came over and we watched as many episodes as we could fit in before we reluctantly calling it a night because of work the next day. The show is about the murder of a Nun called Cathy Cesnik, each episode introduces a new suspect, more background surrounding the murder, and we were desperate to know who the killer was. I’d even googled it and couldn’t find anything. One night as we watched another episode, the sudden realisation hit that we were on the final one. We were finally going to know who did it. We sat down with our snacks, and these snacks remained untouched as my hands covered my mouth consistently for the

next 60 minutes. The end screen played, and we sat in silence for at least 10 minutes. The first and last thing we said about this final episode was “you have got to be kidding me”.
