Stuck writing a villains motive.?

So I am writing a 'mafia era' play with a friend but we seem to be stuck towards the end. The story is a parallel to Orpheus and at the end we need the main villain to "give up" or something in order to give the love interest back to the main character.

Isn't reviewing books difficult work?

Hi, Ever since I started school many years ago, (17 and last year of high school) I've been forced to read books for class assignments. The books that were forced onto me were what teachers said to be
"life changing, must read classics", such examples included The great Gatsby, to kill a mockingbird, and Private Peaceful.
This has caused me to develop an allergy for reading books, I only enjoyed one or two books ever.

Now my teacher is giving me the novel
"Like water for chocolate" in Spanish, and I get diarrhoea for every sentence I read, I can not bring myself to care about the plot, the characters, and whatever happens. But i need to read it or I fail the subject, but I can't get myself to read it!?
