E-books, one of the newest electronic sources, are becoming more and more talked about in debates dealing with readings.

Stephen Hawking John Irving
999 wordsMy browsing was not like any other students'. It was probably a lot easier. I know of people fabricating what they write, but I can not do that.

Literature An Introduction Fiction Poetry
913 wordsEveryone enjoys reading about stories they can relate with no matter what the relation involves. It could be comedy, misery, joy or many others. According to Samuel Johnson this is true.

The comedy is savagely and scornfully sardonic, to the virtual exclusion of the humour that delighted apprehension of and rejoicing in idiosyncrasy and absurdity for their own sakes, which often cuts right across moral considerations and which we normally take for granted in Dickens.
