I could repeat a bunch that you guys have named....
Still Life with Woodpecker by Tom Robbins. Weird stuff. Very cool. My former Librarian super cool hippy x-girlfriend that was the exact fucking opposite of me introduced this to me. Philisophical, romantic, humorous, cocaine binges. It has everything. Gets all crazy talking about how the universe can be explained from the illustrations on a pack of camel cigarettes.
The Grapes of Wrath, Of Mice and Men, Rats Saw God...a lot
I read it in 6th grade, the one about the rabbit right?Quote:

maybe that was because you read it when you were in sixth grade?
ive read a few books that i defenitely wasn't ready to read when i was younger. i read for whom the bell tolls in seventh grade, and forced myself to read the whole thing, and i havent read any hemingway since. i dont think i was ready as a reader to read that book. i think i'll read it again...
Probally true, but any book sounds better than Mein Kampf right now, now theres a book im forcing myself to read
i forced myself to read that too. and good god damn is it boring. i have a thing that any book i start to read, i finish. mein kampf is not a very interesting book.
forcing y ourself to read a book is pointless and excruciating and boring god i just stopped doing that if i c ant take it i just put it away
:upsidedow :bonghit: I don't know if it's pointless, but it sure is excruciating. I've forced myself to keep reading another chapter or two to see if I could eventually get into it. Usually I decide not to waste any more of my life and move on to a different book.
I'm trying to think of a book that took me a long time to get into that I luved....mmmm, I got nothin -but I know there've been a couple.
