Let me put it this way: the worst book I have ever read was Atlas Shrugged, and THAT was even more boring than Twilight. The only reason why I read the whole book was because of a bet on another forum. I read Atlas Shrugged, he read House of Leaves (a psychological horror novel). Needless to say, neither of us enjoyed our respective books.
What Atlas Shrugged is the great book ever, ok I am lying, its is the most mind numbingly boring book in existence.
I haven't read Twilight or the Harry Potter books, but what ever get kids reading is not a bad thing, I grew up surrounded
by those insipid Sweet Vally High books, and was called weird for reading Anne Rice or Steven King

Dhalgren. You just earned bonus points... that is an obscure one, at least in the circle of people I know. Have read it several times - it's a good read. I found the interwoven history of the Dune chronicles to be absolutely fascinating... a rarity, as history is not a favored subject of mine.

Your read Dhalgren, that is an awesome book, it was such a convoluted story I had to re read it several times, definitely a better read then Atlas Shrugged
