I'm reading MacBeth (English), The Crucible (English) and a book about the Roman Empire (I went to Pompeii last month!)
I'm doing The Crucible. It's actually not too bad (Well, I'm actually enjoying reading it, which must mean something. Normally I hate reading scripts.) We've got to do a drama thing on it, I get to be Abby xd
Ah, the Crucible was kinda silly I think, I like the background to why it was written though, about McCarthyism. I never really finished it, but I got a fair way in to it xd I think I did fairly well on my Essay, I dont remember how well.
The English Lit poems are the best! Keep your eyes out for the sexual metaphors.

I like the background too. We're now on Act Three, even though we only need to write about Act One in our essays.
And yes, I've been told about the sexual metaphors. I bet half the people in my class won't get them.
Yeah, we did ours in Act one too. I cant remember the question ... How does Arthur Miller portray something or other in the First act of The Crucible? Something like that.

I did an essay on the characters relationships with each other in the 'Yellow Bird' scene.
