Anybody else reading this for school? Or for fun?

This is one of the only assigned reading that I actually like. The narration's so interesting. I read this book a while back, then read it again for class, and you notice so many little things the second time around that talks about the guy's character.

I read it. Prior to reading Chronicle of a Death Foretold Wednesday, it was the only book we'd read in lit this year I particularly liked. I know a bunch of people didn't like it because it's "depressing," and "has the worst message," but I find existentialism kind of interesting. The book was great, and it was I liked how the change in writing structure paralleled the change in Mersault's character.
