Now, after reading Paul Stewart's book "The Australian Connection" my final opinion is split.
The story tells about a boy who wants to meet his real father after 16 years,
who gets to know a new continent,
who learns about the musicbuisness and realices the real meaning of fame and
who finds his first love.
On the one hand this book has wonderful romantic moments, parts where you really identifyded with the characters and surprising actions that had not expect.
The text is not very difficult wroten and you could look after unknown words in a dictionary at the last pages. Also you could form a first impression of the book from the titelpicture or the text on the last page.
On the other hand, the style of whriting sets no claim to pupil which already had 5 years English in class. The way I see it some parts were not really realistic (kill cow) or like the last chapter a little bit confusing. But accually I liked the last diary entry because the ending was first strange and then cleared up.

hey Kata,
I can identify with you. You really THOUGHT about it and didn't write something in five minutes.
But in one thing I see it in another way. For me there weren't any romantic parts in the book. The auther wrote the parts, which could be a bit romantic, boring and very short.
cu in school,
love ya,
Arda
