The Bell Jar: Post 1

When I was received "The Bell Jar" as my next assigned reading book, I was so excited. From what I heard about it from previous readers, and even from reading the back of the book, I could tell I would enjoy the story. I am happy to say my expectations were completely reached. Even though I have not gotten to the part of the story where Esther actually becomes insane, I am hooked. I love the story behind her, and how she is so different then all of the other girls picked to live in the city. I am excited to see what else Esther will do with her life and how it will effect her in the long run. I am now at the point in the story where she just finished her first date with Constantin, which went better then she expected. I hope that sometime happens between them two because I believe it will make an interesting twist to the story. So, in conclusion I am very happy with The Bell Jar and excited to see what obstacles Esther will take on in her future.
