borrow books from the library.
One book I took out last week deals with modern feminism and motherhood. It’s a bit of a controversial
topic, but it’s an interesting and enjoyable read. I’m not sure I’ll have time to finish it before I have to
return the book to the library. Maybe I’ll renew it for another week – that means to get an extension of
the length of time I can keep the book.
Note: We talk about the beginning and end of a book, story, or film (not the “start and finish”). The first
and last parts of a story can also be called the opening and closing scenes (in a movie) or the opening
and closing chapters (in a book).
