Sometimes A Great Notion is extremely confusing. You would be lost in that book. Now, I've never read A Clockwork Orange, but I HAVE heard good things about it. It also seems like that book fits in with the dreary science fiction novels such as 1984 and A Brave New World. I would read the book first. The book is sad and humorous all at once.

...because I'm not intelligent enough? I assure you, I'm quite able to find my way through books.

I've heard that Clockwork Orange is a good book as well, if slightly sad. That's all right. I might read it at some point; I might not.

I liked Brave New World. I read it earlier this year. You've got to understand some of the levels to be able to fully appreciate it, and you've got to understand that he's not extending his views through the text. I liked the style in particular although I did find the ending a bit disappointing.

1984 is on my reading list for the summer.

NO! I never said you weren't intelligent enough. I was just telling you that One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is better to read first rather than see the movie. As I said earlier, I never saw the film, but the book was really good! I laughed all the way through. :lol:

Great! Now I feel guilty again. I guess this brings me to a 3.

No. Don't feel guilty. I guess I'm still a bit snippy; it's my fault. (Blast it, please don't feel guilty.)

Sopho, I thought Lord of the Flies was sad. Simon was my favorite character.

Why are you snippy, RainSong? Oh, and I also read Lord of the Flies as well. It wasn't bad. It kind of shows you how the essence of evil pretty much takes us over. In fact, that's was Golding's aim for writing the book.

I can't wait for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to come out. My mom and I would always fight for who gets to read it first. We solved that problem by buying TWO books insted of one.

4. I've decided that if my mom makes me go to school, I'm going to walk home after she drops me off, and walk around downtown for a little while.

How come you don't want to go to school? I haven't been since November.

Exams and heat. I don't like either.

I'm excited for the last HP book as well. I always get to read the book first, simply because I'm the fastest reader at my house, and I usually buy the book anyway. I'm not really fond of the movies though.

Brave New World is one of my favorite novels of all time. It's probably the most meaninfgul and powerful satire I've ever read. 1984 is also very good and shockingly relevant in today's world. If you like dystopian novels like those, then you'll also probably enjoy the following:

Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
The Iron Heel by Jack London
We by Yevgeny Zaymatin
The Running Man by Richard Bachman (the book not the movie)
Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand
Virtually anything written by Philip K. Dick.

There are tons more, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

But still, woo! Everything is happy. Hahahaha... Can't get the stupid grin off my face!

I don't want to go back, I really hate it and I'll probably get my ass kicked if I go back.

You mean you are afraid that stupid kid will try to do something for revenge?

Can you tell someone in school about it, so he/she can help you?
have you told your psychitrist about it yet?

I hope everything works out good for you.
You always have WP which have people who will support you always.

What have you tried so far that would get you to sleep? Are you drinking caffeine before bed? Well, anyway, I just hope that you'll sleep better tonight.

7. I'm content, but I need to go practice for a while, but not just yet. I'm also curious if I have been of some help or of some good company today.
