The Pigman. Sounds like a funny book... But no I haven't read it. I have to read The Joy Luck Club for Summer reading.
Have you tried Sparknotes ? They generally give you an idea about what the book is about. |

Then if you have an idea of what it is, why did you make this topic? And there's a summary on the back of the book, right? That's all you pretty much need to know to read a book.

They generally give you an idea about what the book is about.  The Joy Luck Club is a required book for seniors over here, too. I heard it's about some girl who gets abused by her father or something. I don't know, I didn't read it. |

I, however, have to read "A Prayer for Owen Meany" by John Irving.. It's a really weird book. And it's LONG..
