you know what else was demonized? a wrinkle in time, those books..i forget who wrote them. never occurred to me at the time, though.
Madeline L'Engle wrote them...and how were they demonized? one of them fictionalizes the Flood
as far as i remember, that was the book where those kids could travel around space in the 4th dimension.... and those 3 witches helped them.. and there was that big brain that controlled everything...
i thought they weren't really witches---isn't that just what people THOUGHT they were? i'm just saying that in comparison to a series such as narnia which actually says Jesus name in the last book...
i don't remember the sex in citr...just a couple of eff words. MAN i used to love that book.
correct me if im wrong someone but i thought there was sex...it's a great piece of writing though.
seriuosly... i really liked the boook .....
for me too POOP ON.
i dont know i was never into those teenager angst. look at me and my sad story, type of book. why would i want to read that. so that it makes me sad ? no ! give me action , adventure, something funny. something cool. drama and sadness? no need to read about it. i can live that.
honestly the only reason i read it was so i could do a paper on it for english. the zero wouldv'e given me an eff for the class. after reading it though, i really liked it. i used to think that I was the catcher in the rye... (maybe i still do)
I read it because I was told you have to read it before your 20 or you just don't appreciate it and almost everyone who reads it thinks that they're Holden
another one of those books is Catcher 22 right? i so appreciate his aimless ramblings all the time. so hard to read though, you constantly have to remember where you left off, who people are, what's going on. very confusing but thoroughly enjoyable, so far.
maybe you're thinking of Catch 22?
i heard an interview with the author...it was originally called 'Catch 18' but there was another book released the same year with the number 18 in the title, so he changed it to 22. it's hard to imagine things as 'a catch 18'... :/
well im a total bookworm cus i like coming of age stories. i also read books that i dont like the plot of just for the sake of reading a well written novel.
