for our High School Senior AP English class, I have to read...The Wind in the Willows It's a freakin children's book. It has pictures! I should not be reading any book that when you turn the page there's a picture of a rat and a mole in a row boat! Maybe I'm missing something here. Is it some sort of an allegory? Is this like Animal Farm? Someone help me out here, I can't take this book for much longer. __________________ AIM Screen name: Vacalicious9343 Tims encounting, always want more, 'cept no 7th ed ones!

vacalicious: That's ok, I'd read the books for my AP English course at LEAST two years before. I didn't really catch anything new when I had to re-read them. But Heart Of Darkness was pretty awesome nonetheless.

Did you like it...? That book's one of my very favorites Over the weekend I finished Clive Barker's "The Inhuman Condition".. I just loved it. The best story is "the body politic", a story about two hands who decide to form a revolution and free themselves from their body (with knives ). Pretty scary stuff Then I went out and bought a couple of used Roald Dahl's children's books.. "the Witches" and "the B.F.G.". I just can't seem to get enough Roald Dahl for the moment. __________________ When you think 8th foils, think-SerraBanger He wants 'em!

POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT!!!quote: Originally posted by SerraBanger: Did you like it...? That book's one of my very favorites
It's...interesting to say the least. I had seen the movie about a week before buying the book (great movie, BTW) and polished it off in two days. The book, I think, makes Bateman's psychosis even more of a mystery than the movie does, and the constant bombardment with the decadence of their lifestyle really gets to be deadening after a while, so it's easy to see how someone could go insane in that atmosphere. It's definitely one of the sickest books I can remember reading. My only complaint is that there's really no ending to the book. It just stops and feels like there's something more that maybe needs to be said...but then, that may have been what Ellis intended. *shrug* __________________ PLEASE REPORT RULES VIOLATIONS!!!*voice from beyond the grave* Thank u... - magic_crazy James and the Bluejay Rotten Tomatoes
