A book worm's paradise. Latest best sellers to the classics.

All but one from high school . . .may be controversial


butI would read anything I could get my hands on.

Autobiography of Ben Franklin--couldn't get past page 2, got the Cliff notes, and the highest score on the test.

Moby Dick was 300 pages of "flushing the toilet to hear the water run" and 15 pages of plot.

And more recently--"A Confederacy of Dunces" Supposed to be funny, a Pulitzer winner. . . found it dreadfully pathetic (the hero is an obese guy who masturbates into his mattress?) and wasn't surprised to hear the author had committed suicide.
