    My class is doing: "Casablanca", "The Plough the moon and stars" and something I cannot remember the name of!

    I would rather do: "Inside I'm dancing", "Wuthering Heights" and "Sive" this year.

    Are they on the syllabus? Is this okay?

    Thanks.

    Are you in 6th year? To change your texts at this point of the year is kind of insane to be honest. You don't have to like the texts you are doing, just to be able to talk about them.

    Yeah I am. I'm pretty confident (not naive) so is it possible?

    Oh, definitely. You'd need to work very very hard if you don't know the three texts already though. You'd also be without the support of teachers notes and that. Personally though, if I had worked with the original texts for 2 years now I'd be really reluctant to change, whether I liked them or not.
