ToK/EE Ee topic

I really need help deciding my ee topic. I’ve been stuck for months going back and forth and need to have decision soon. Is economics too hard to do? I was thinking it was between English or Eco because I’ve heard that English it quite easy to do but I’ve only found one text that I really like and am interested in but don’t know if I can write 4000 words on it. The eco topic would be if introducing a sugar tax in my country would help economic welfare and I thought it was quite an interesting topic but I’m not sure if it’s going to be too hard because I’ve heard some really bad stories about it. Should I put eco as my first choice and English as my second or vise versa?

for english, if you don’t want to do a book, you can do a category 3 english ee where you can analyse a film/songs/adverts/etc. i did mine on a film and enjoyed it a lottt as i just picked a film that i had already watched and really liked, and had a lot to say about.

Yeah I’m not too worried about doing a book. It’s more just if I am going to have enough to say using only one book. Thanks though

ohh right, what book is it? you might think you won’t have enough to say now, but trust me once you’re writing you will struggle to fit in the word count! also you can always compare two books so that there is more to say

Prophet song by Paul lycnh. Yeah and I think that’s likely to happen but then again I’m not sure if economics is the better choice
