I loved that book. Actually, i saw the movie when i was like 7.
Couldnt get proper sleep for weeks afterwards.. oOo:

I also enjoyed 'A Hitchhikers Guide To the Galaxy' by Douglas Adams.
Long as shit, just as confusing, but it tied it all up really well in the end.

there is nothing worse than the book "Watership Down." Its a book about talking bunnies leaving their home and fighting against a Hitler-like bunny and have their own wars... without actual bloodshed and fighting.

read the book a few years back.

good book, gets you thinking, great plot...

...then you get to the end which is the worst ending possible. its like a cliffhanger.

My favorite book is For Whom the Bell Tolls rock:
wish we read it in school, i had to do a research paper on it.

what grade are you in? because there are a lot of books you read in school that are pretty good in the years to come.
as good as wuthering heigths "shivers down my spine".......



My favourtie books would have been heart of Darkness & Fifth Buisness possibly the 2 best books to me ever written.

If anyone ever gets the chance dl the book fifth buisness and read it asap. Amazing stuff.

Lord of the Flies and To Kill a Mocking Bird were without a doubt the best books we've read in school.

Read Heart Of Darkness, then you can compare modern day American Imperialism to Dutch Imperialism of the olden days :)

+LOTF = good but not that good.
