Definetly read: First Love

Hello,

Today I will be talking to you about a book I read for school called First Love by Ivan Turgueniev. When I looked at the back of the book it said ''Turqueniev describes human passion like no other'' I was kinda not really convinced, since my last book fail, the scorch trials (its really not interesting) but I became really into this book when I first started reading it. Its kinda short, the version I read is 126 pages, which is not much when a book is so addicting.

Summary: It all starts in a party when the main character (Vladimir) has to tell the story of his first love. Two weeks later he hands in a book were he  tells his story.

Vladimir at the time is 16 and he goes to spend the summer to his country-side house, there he meets Princess Zenaida Alexandrovna, whom he madly falls in love with. There are 4 other man with her, which are also in love with her.

Personal opinion: I'm truly devating on whether I love this book or I hate it, Its so amazing all the way but the ending is really sad (I cried and its the first time ever I've cried with a book) and I got mad with the ending, but it describes human passion so well its lilke your Vladimir  and its like you could capture  the essence and the beauty of the words and send them to your heart.

If you've read this book  please comment, if you haven't I would definetly reccomend it to you.

Thanks :)



Byee :)
