I have a lot of those.
Lord of the Flies Catcher in the Rye Grapes of Wrath Jane Eyre A Tale of Two Cities A Farewell to Arms Catch-22 The Sun Also Rises For Whom the Bell Tolls Atlas Shrugged And to my ultimate shame: Native Son Black Boy And I didn't read Great Expectations, Pride and Prejudice, and 1984 until I got to college. I don't believe I got through high school (and two AP courses) without having to read them. |

We had to read Catcher in the Rye for 8th grade. Half the class liked it and half the class hated it. I was a little neutral about the book. It would've been okay if Holden wasn't so god damn whiney about everything. I read a Tale of Two Cities as an extra credit... it was a little boring in the beginning and the fact that it described unnecessary stuff and went on explaining details that has nothing to do with the chapter made it very very very boring. And it was hard for me to memorize the names of the characters. I only memorized the Mannettes since their last name was just... recognizable I guess. My class is going to read Lord of the Flies at the end of the year..or somewhat in the middle of the year.
I do feel bad because I didn't get to read How to Kill a Mockingbird. It was an optional book for my year and then we have to read it next year... I kinda wish I read Midnight's Summer Stream.. or is that how it goes? |
