The book "Funny in Farsi" was the first memoir book I had ever read and it was in English. When I first know that the ESL 100 class have to read a memoir in English, I had a feeling that I was going to suffer from reading it, because for most of the memoirs that I saw in the book store were mostly about how a person become successful and the stories be hide the success or some tragical stories about an individual. However, my prejudges was wrong. The book "Funny in Farsi was actually quite good and humorous. I am a person who usually don't read unless I have to read for classes, but the book Funny in Farsi is a little exception this time, I read it even though the pages that were not yet to be assign. The stories in the books are really funny to read that made me want to know what is going to happen and can't stop myself from stop continue reading it. The book activities and student expert chapters only made me remember the stories better and learn new vocabularies. Well, I think I can remember the chapters pretty well with or without the activities, because the reading level of the book is not so hard and the stories were humorous. However, I like the student expert part, because from that, I can see the different point of views of the other people in the group. And sometimes it was really intersting and excited when the group put ourselves into the situations, we often laugh so hard, simply because we enjoyed the stories.

Obviously, you know how pleased this makes me feel to hear that you enjoyed reading the book, and even read ahead before the pages were assigned. I hope in the future you will grab an interesting book that you see in a bookstore or library and read it!
