    What two prescribed texts are you using for Crime Fiction?

    i loved anil's ghost!! im doing anil and rear window... but i'll look briefly over my notes on skull incase that fits the question better... we studied skull the most but by the end of it it was a class arguement of if it was a parody or not. the real inspector hound sounded interesting.

    Subjects

    i'd say opposite. drop. a friend tried to do 13 units, and it stretched them way to thin. the less units you do the more you can focus on them, and relax, you know have a life during the hsc (odd concept i know).
