I actually got emotionally involved in it.  Getting mad at Frankenstein for being so stupid and insensitive; feeling bad for his monster.

 

I wouldn't read it for fun, but in a classroom setting where we discussed our thoughts on the book and wrote essays on our interpretations of themes in the novel, it was quite a good read.

Yes, well, I don't read books to do critical analyses of them, I read books to enjoy them. I don't look for deeper meanings.

I usually don't either.

 

I was in AP English.  I didn't have a choice in the matter.

 

But I find that reading classics like that, for the purpose of finding deeper meanings, is good, every once in a while.

Man, my high school sucked. Senior English we only read three things: Macbeth, 1984, and Pride and Prejudice. Macbeth I already knew, and I learned never to go anywhere near Orwell again.

We read Frankenstein, Oedipus Rex, The Sound and the Fury, part of Bartleby, and we had a poetry section.

 

I think that's all we did...

Pride and Prejudice I actually liked, though high school being now eight years in the past, I don't remember what I liked about it. Also my English teacher gave me personally a recommendation for The Fountainhead, which I liked, even if Ayn Rand didn't seem to really think through all of her ideas too well.

Ooo, I read Pride & Prejudice for fun, and I loved it.  I tried to read Emma, but I couldn't get past the first few pages, though the movie was good.  I read Jane Eyre and loved that too.

 

My Creative Writing class's student teacher recommended the Wheel of Time to me. :D

well then...

 

reylers younger than I though 0.o

Not all of our ages need 4 numbers to write down...

unless your up for writing down fractions

We here at DM don't go by real ages, fools!

 

We go by the true age of each person's heart, assuming they have one, even. ;)

That's more than 4 numbers :(

I am not counting
