* EnduringLove *
Being an English As student , and having to study EnduringLove in detail I thought it would be a good idea to right a review about it because I am so familiar with the book. I also decided to write this review as I have my english exams in a couple of days and one of the exams is based on writing something like a review , and the other paper is about EnduringLove , so I figured that by writing a review on this book would be good practise for both papers. I just hope my review doesn't turn out to be too essay-like!

' Rhys Ifans. He pushes Craig to pray at the dead mans landing place, and a brief tap on the shoulder sparks an infatuation.
We then see Cragi trying to get back to his life, but everything reminds him of the incident with the balloon and he cant get rid of the guilt that he let go first, encouraging the rest to do so, and thus sealing the last mans fate.
Ifans contacts craig out the blue, asking to meet. On meeting it is awkward and Ifans is pushing for Craig to say something, but wont explain what. Gradually, the 'chance' meetings increase until Craig cannot be polite anymore and tells him to get lost.
Meanwhile we watch Craig reacting to being stalked, trying to talk to Morton who is as cold as ice, until Ifans starts knowing too much. He knows about Claire, Joes past etc and eventually confesses he loves Craig and cant ...
