Wait guys since I don’t know what most of these books about I’m gonna guess what their about
All the light we cannot see: idk maybe light is significant and it’s about seeking truth or smth idk
Vertigo: someone gets dizzy and dies
1984: some political stuff set in 1984
Past the shallows: some depressing stuff
The merchant of Venice: some Shakespeare stuff set in Austria or smth
Slessor: reminds me of a slug
Billy Elliot: isn’t it based on a musical of a ballet dancer or smth
The crucible: someone gets crucified
The boy behind the curtain: a little boy who is scared of the dark or monsters at night
Rosemary: some flowers set in the 1940s
Rainbow’s end: reminds me of the rainbow serpent
Go back to where you came from: probably about racism
Waste land: some geo sustainability stuff

If you want to feel a bit of angst, id recommend Past the Shallows. It's a decent book when you ignore how ridiculously long it takes you to actually get into it.

that's so real, analysing it on your own is so fun, you can create your interpretations and all, hsc writing really does take the fun out of it, i absolutely dread english but i have moments where im like 'huh, this is kind of interesting'. too bad those moments only last a few minutes 😭

Low-key thinking of being different and special by going rouge in the actual HSC by picking Vertigo instead of The Crucible. YOLO!

Wait so technically if u hate ur texts so much u could just ditch the text u did in school and pick ur own one
Like, obviously not for your assessments/trial exam, but let it be known that your teachers will not be marking your HSC exam paper so... if you really hate your text or just really vibe another text, what's stopping you? Yourself. Life is for living.... not simply.... existing.
