I see you met my online ex from last year....

I'm dead

That woman is a patriot & deserves a Metal of Honor for her service. 130 Nazis were less effective soldiers, and pissing fire because of her. What a hero!

Library, and each has a tag explaining why they hate them.

Just because something is a classic doesn't mean you love it. Proust is a genius, but I wouldn't read Swan's Way again if you threatened to run me over with a Zamboni.

Must be, I'm sure they'll also defend Jane Eyre as a classic, when it's possibly the second worst book ever written!

My experience with Lord of the Flies is always going to reflect sitting through Mr. Moore's excruciating AP English class. I can see where that would color my appreciation.

Yesh, all opinions are valid, even when they are qualitatively incorrect, ike that one.

Thats me & anything Hemingway. I'm convinced AP English is designed to make you over analyze literature until you can't stand it!

Here's the real irony: I really enjoy the film adaptations. It's quite possibly the only book that I like better as a film.

Jaws, The Godfather, and Ready Player One are all in that category for me.

i always see in tv shows how US students have to analyze and find meaning in books that all kids in US has read..?? Is that not just a tv-trope but real?

So. Weird.
How can a kid assign anything but face value or imagined truths to something writ by someone they dont know

I don't care avout Jaws, i prefer deep blue sea. I find the godfather tedious and prefer scarface. RP1 is a travesty. It's 50 Shades but for not-gamers.

And if the librarian was even moderately feminist, I could see having strong issues with Lord of the Flies as well

American Psycho... the book's great but a little too fucked up even for me. The movie's a much better story, while the book's... a piece of art to be a appreciated but not enjoyed.

Nope, not a trope. It's obnoxious. Why can't I just enjoy the story. And, why am I penalized if I don't get the same things out if the book as the instructor?

I loved Ready Player One, I had no idea it was a book until long after I'd seen the film!

I try to read books through the lense of the era it was written. If I didn't, 99% of books written before 1990's would be unreadable

wait what lol, they think there's a "correct" way to interpret imagined hidden meanings behind books?? L to the O to the L!

the film's some good dumb action fun, it's awesome and cool kinda like Battle Angel Alita (watch if you havent! ) but the book just... drrraaaaagggs....

i have a first edition copy of jules vernes From the Earth to the Moon in swedish from like 1870 something. It's literally unreadable because swedish adopted a standardized set of grammatical rules just after it was published that pretty much completely changed the way words are spelled
