Too Boring To Read - I Am Just Warning
I’ve been told that to be able to lose friends, first I have to have them. I thought about this issue deeply. How deep? Very. Then I’ve reached the conclusion that I already have friends. They live in books. It’s not an easy job to choose the best friend among the characters as I always meet the new ones while I am collecting the missing pieces of me which the authors sprinkle on the book pages. Still, there are some of them who you connect with from the first lines that you read. For me, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is one of them. He’s from the novel “Perfume” by Patrick Süskind. (You may have heard of it, read it or watched its movie version. Though I will not watch it, I don’t want the director to ruin my imagination.) Now, I really force myself to find the most gorgeous word in English to describe his talent. As always I fail. Let’s say he’s just super!
Probably, you are expecting me to tell about the character, the novel and the reasons what makes him very special for me. I am sorry. I find telling about books quite annoying. Yes, I said “annoying”, I could have say “disgusting”, too. He’s like this, he’s like that. He did these things, he did those things. Blah blah. The novel is based on the life of a perfume appretince who does not have his own body scent, then starts to kill girls in order to find a perfect essence for himself. See? Annoying. While I was reading, I was living in Grenouille’s body. When he was in the cave, away from all the humans, I felt his isolation in an ultimate level. Although it’s written that he ran because he couldn’t stand the smell of the human bodies, I can find thousands of connatations under those sentences. Whatever the author has written there, the feelings arise from the book when it’s opened, changes for to each individual. I can’t tell how I felt or what I understood from it. Just know that we share a lot of things with Grenouille. The only thing I can do now is to thank to dear Patrick Süskind. I also read “The Pigeon”, a short story, by him. The character in it is also a favourite. Just excellent. I, I just can’t tell, you should read them otherwise that would be an insult to the author.
I would like to talk about Mersault from Happy Death by Albert Camus and, as a cliche Holden Caulfield from The Catcher In The Rye by J.D Salinger and some others but Italki restricts me. Maybe another time. I love reading but I am not a literature geek. I only read what and when I want to. Hi!

You at least are never a cliche.
Too Boring To Read - I Am Just Warning (You)
I’ve been told that to be able to lose friends, first I have(or--I'd have to have them) to have them.
I thought about this issue deeply. How deep? Very. Then I’ve reached the conclusion that I already have friends. They live in books.(Me?:)) It’s not an easy job to choose the best friend among the characters as I always meet the new ones while I am collecting the missing pieces of me which the authors sprinkle on the book pages. (Good job there) Still, there are some of them who (or--whom) you connect with from the first lines that you read. For me, Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is one of them. He’s from the novel “Perfume” by Patrick Süskind. (You may have heard of it, read it or watched its movie version. Though I will not watch it, I don’t want the director to ruin my imagination. Now, I really force myself to find the most gorgeous word in English to describe his talent. As always I fail. Let’s say he’s just super!

I also read “The Pigeon”, a short story, by him. The character in it is also a favourite (or favorite= American English). Just excellent. I,... I just can’t tell. You should read them otherwise that would be an insult to the author.

Saddly, it's hard to see one's own mistakes.
