Summary:
Adrian Mole lived very unfortunately. He, his family and people around him were trouble makers everywhere. His parents divorced, Bert Baxter Adrian Mole took care of was old and dirty, and Barry Kent who was very vulgar and rude menaced him to take his money. What's worse, his face has broken out again and again, so he didn't have much confidence on his appearance. However, he had an illusion that he was a intellectual and he was getting too big for his boots.
His love was more smoothly compared to his whole life, which was very unlucky. His love was never returned first, but his love, Pandora also fell in love with him finally. Even though he gave a hasty glance at Barbara Boyer who was very wonderful girl momentarily, his love was unshakable.
Comments:
When I first read this book, it was very interesting because Adrian Mole was a adolescent like me. He endured the unfortunate situations very strongly and he achieved his love finally. Under this circumstance, he continued voluntary work and didn't lose hope. If I were he, I would not bear anymore. I would not understand such parents, such a old person and the reason why I was unlucky.
The secret diary of Adrian Mole was a exciting and impressive book. I lost track of time reading this book. I will try to read this book when I have enough time.
