I had to read it for school so we were off to a bad start. The beginning was okay but the last 30 pages were soo boring. So basically there is this dude Werther and he falls in love with Lotte but she is engaged and later married to Albert. 
Tomorrow I’m going to write an exam on this book so wish me luck. And lately I’ve been feeling depressed and got so worried when Werther said stuff that I relate to. Spoileralert he unalives himself at the end. Tbh the beginning was bad the middle part was meh and the ending was bad too. 
But it’s considered a classic so idk

  This is definitely a well written book that was very important for it's time and genre.  
  However, I have no interest in reading about a man whining for almost 200 pages about a woman that clearly has no interest in him. Maybe I would be more emphatic towards Werther if he didn't romanticize the sexual assault inflicted on a woman he doesn't even know and then proceeded himself to assault the woman he supposedly loves more then anything in the world.
