Have you read these books?
 
Have you read Tim O' Briens, The Things They Carried ?? or how about Dispatches by Michael Herr? They are both books on Vietnam. Just wondering, cause i have a test on both tomarrow oOo:

No. You're lucky, you get to read war books. I get to read Charlottes Web and The Outsiders this year stupid: .

Anyway...have you read them yet? I'm looking into getting a bit of literature on war. Just wondering if you'd recommend them.

intrestedviewer 06-09-2004 09:39 PM

Eh he, yea um thats the problem right there. Im on page 25 of Dispatches, havent even started The Things They Carried. oOo: I am royally screwed happy: Damn games, cant get away from em.

man, i hated Tiny Toons, especially those two human characters, one was Montana Max (the rich kid), and that stupid girl who loved animals and had the irritating voice.

[quote="intrestedviewer"]Dispatches by Michael Herrquote]
i just bought this book, im reading it now

snipes 06-10-2004 07:21 PM

One time, when I needed to write a book report , the book was one of a series, and all I did was read the first chapter and the back of the book, which explained what had happened and basically all the things I needed. (plot, theme, view, setting, etc.)

intrestedviewer 06-10-2004 07:43 PM

Yup well i read the first 30 pages of both books, took the test. Turns out he only asked us what 3 main themes there were on "Dispatches." I think i got it right oOo: Hope i did, but its a good thing the bulk of the test was on the conflict in Vietnam in general. Me thinks i passed the class, Woot! biggrin:

Hence the stupid:

Our school is a bit messed up.

You'd think we'd be reading a few more mature books.
