Nineteen Minutes


What can you do in nineteen minutes?



One of the best books I've ever read until now would have to be "Nineteen Minutes". It was totally absorbing... A real eye-opener. My teacher gave it to me as a reward for joining a speech competition a few months back. I can't thank her enough for that. Who knew she could pick such a "modern" book when the school library is full of outdated shit. It's about common AND controversial issues faced by teens today. Like peer pressure, popularity issues, depression & even school shootings. You will definitely not regret reading this book. I recommend it to anyone & everyone.



Here are some of my favourite quotes from the book:





"If we don't change the direction we are headed, we will end up where we are going."





"When you begin a journey of revenge, start by digging tow graves, one for your enemies & one for yourself."
