> I didn't like "Three Junes" - it seemed 100 pages and 3 characters too long. No one else in the group cared for it overall, either.
<<Good, that makes me feel better.>
> When it's my turn, I'm going to have the group read "The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath. I wonder what the reaction will be.
<<LOL! That's actually one of the books *I* read over and over.<<My reread books: "Jane Eyre", Madaline L'Engle's "A Wrinkle in Time". Anything by Ray Bradbury. I've got tons of his paperbacks, which cost me about 75 cents each, that I don't want to get rid of, even though they look like they've been through a war. I wonder if kids these days can buy paperback books with their allowances. I don't even know how much a kid gets. I used to get $4.00 a week when I was 11 or 12, and I could buy 4 or 5 paperbacks with that.....
I also had a secret love of Star Trek novels...
