One a month?

It took me an entire month to finish a book I could have read in 4 hours. I feel like such a chump. I've just been caught balancing schoolwork and a life. I joined a book club with some friends, and I need to read a novel you will hear about in 2 weeks, so I've devised a reading schedule to help discipline myself. I also have a weekly routine keeping me occupied every night of the week except for Friday and Saturday. And an 11 o' clock bedtime. I'm actually really fed up with my inability to live life in the moment, but hopefully this will clear up by the end of the term. So I'll go 5 more weeks with this strict lifestyle. Lame.
So the book I read this month is A Clockwork Orange. I saw the movie 4 years ago, but fell asleep halfway through, and bought the book 2 years later. So I'm actually getting down to business, and finishing things that need to be done.
I liked it. It was difficult to get into at first, but then difficult to get out of once I caught on to the dialect. It was something to think about. Just the title is something to think about.
Unfortunately all the "ultra-violence" was something I was having difficulty comprehending. I don't get criminals. I don't understand kids like Alex. They don't really explain his motivations. Boredom? But he's really driven to cause as much mayhem as possible. Maybe it was mentioned, but I can't remember. Oh well. Until next time.
