Hm, so I decided to read this book even though I not sure if I;m going to like it, but hey everyone needs to challenge themselves every once in awhile. The book The Bell Jar is by Sylvia Plath ( A famous Poet? I think.) The summary on the back says it relates to Plath's Early life which is kind of interesting.
It starts off with a girl named Esther Greenwood. At the moment she happens to be living in New York on this scholarship thingy that allows her to go to fashion events and receive free cloths for a month (I know cool right?) Anywho, she has a dormish mate named Doreen. Doreen must be truly gorgeous because that's all Esther talks about for a couple of pages, she also seems to have a great sense of humor. So Esther is about to go out to a lunch-in (is that what you call it?) with Doreen. When their cab stops and young man incites them to drink a little at bar and they decide to go. While there Esther orders pure vodka because she believes that it may be her chosen drink and she ends up liking it. Doreen becomes all lovey dovey with the man who invited them out in the first place, his name is Lenny. Later Lenny ask if Doreen wants to go back to his place and she agrees if Esther can come to.
Okay well it seems like a Chick Flickish book right now. However the back cover implies that it is about a girl who has a mental break down (Esther) right now she seems perfectly fine but hey, who knows.
