Unfortunately, my high school literature class was a overview, we only read the House of Seven Gables and Tale of Two Cities. We only had to read several chapters of other books. Thats why I'm trying to read a lot now, need to catch up!
Nothing like a great read I'll tell you what, its a real treat to dig into a well written and excellent story. I read The Davinci Code a month ago for kicks and giggles since I never read it, and was sadly reminded why I hate pulp fiction, it may have been batter if I hadn't just read Harper Lee before it, haha I felt like I had wasted my time.
