KerriMarie I really disliked Siddhartha when I read it, but I think it was because I read it way too young - I think we read it in 9th grade! Maybe I should try to read it again, I might appreciate it more - but there are so many great books out there!

thecaitycat I must be a weirdo, then. I loved "To Kill A Mockingbird" and everyone else seemed to hate it, though.

Withoutwings She's Come Undone was Meh for me. His other book "I Know This Much Is True" was a good book but difficult for me to read because the brother is like my fiance's brother and it hit very close to home. It was a much better book than "She's Come Undone".

KerriMarie Oh, I love She's Come Undone! I thought it was so interesting and I couldn't put it down. My mom buys a lot of the books on Oprah's book club, so I read a lot of them when she's done. I really liked White Oleander, I think - I don't remember it too well.

shiningfae I had forgotten about Don Quixote! I started reading it in high school because I was in a production of Man of LaMancha and I wanted to read the book that inspired the play, but I couldn't get into it. It was just really dull. (I'm glad that someone turned...

Withoutwings I'm reading 1984 right now. I know what you mean. It's hard to get into... but once you do... if you can look past the fact that we are in 2007 some of the ideas aren't so farfetched.

KerriMarie Ugh, I haaaaaaated that book. We also had to read Grendel, which is like a contemporary re-telling of the Beowulf myth, which is equally boring and bad and awful. Why do we make kids read such bad books? It teaches them that reading is boring and horrible!...
