Books that are a snooze fest should just go right into the trash! Books make me tired as is and that just makes it worse!Aleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793307292393570181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-7216481835753076662008-10-04T17:21:00.000-05:002008-10-04T17:21:00.000-05:00Mine are Animal Farm and Heart of Darkness.

I've read Animal Farm twice (never for a class, just because I couldn't understand why I didn't like it) and still didn't like it.<BR/><BR/>I get the importance of Heart of Darkness but it was a snooze fest for me.Ameehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10895337474855212021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-77445216942745953942008-10-04T16:17:00.000-05:002008-10-04T16:17:00.000-05:00Marie- Unbearable is no good!smilingsal- I'll be s...Marie- Unbearable is no good!<BR/><BR/>smilingsal- I'll be sure to pop over!<BR/><BR/>jlshall- Yeah it just doesn't do it for me and sadly also with a lot of history too! :( I thought I hated non-fiction when I was younger but I've taken a liking to memoirs and books like Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point. I guess I know my tastes better now :D<BR/><BR/>taren- I've never seen Casablanca, I think I should though, even just so i can say i have! I didn't really like the Scarlet Letter either and haven't read 1984 or anything by Jack London, safe for now!Aleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793307292393570181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-41529529891009153542008-10-03T21:08:00.000-05:002008-10-03T21:08:00.000-05:00Movie wise, hands down it's Casablanca.

I get why they exist and why they're important. I also get drowsy just thinking about them.Tarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905521278112853549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-67366392615330733122008-10-03T01:44:00.000-05:002008-10-03T01:44:00.000-05:00I have the same problem with reading science - I'm...I have the same problem with reading science - I'm interested, but it usually goes right by me.
