<p>My summer Assignment is to read Neal Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World and annotate it. Then we have to write a 2-3 page essay on 3 questions.</p>
<p>Has anyone read these books? Which one is better... which should I read first?</p>
<p>I loved Brave New World</p>
<p>bumpity bump bump</p>
<p>Any reviews?</p>
<p>I've read Brave New World. It was amazing. I am rereading it for our AP Eng class this summer. I don't know about the other one though.</p>
<p>I also read Brave New World and loved it. In fact, I enjoyed it so much, I wrote my senior thesis for high school partially on it.</p>
<p>my summer reading for ap english language consists of:
Brave New World By Aldous Huxley
Brave New World Revisited by Aldous Huxley
The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien</p>
<p>i decided to get an early start as i will be at a debate institute for 4 weeks and another week long debate tournament in about 2 weeks so i don't have 5 weeks of my summer to read these books. Luckily i chose Brave New World to start with and i'm on page 180/270. It's a great book so far and I really enjoy it. I suggest that one.</p>
<p>brave new world is a really good book :)</p>
<p>so wat about the other one lol?</p>
<p>never heard of it. But if Brave New World were a woman, she'd be absolutely pneumatic!</p>
<p>Ford bless us, every one!</p>
<p>wow. our lit class has to read 4 books. I forgot all of them, but it includes oedipus rex, crime and punishment, and of mice and men. Also, we need to have a very good understand of Greek mythology by the time we come to class in two months by reading two or three (I forgot) books regarding it.</p>
<p>haha this is like the fourth thread on ap summer reading (ones ap lang, ones ap lit, and the other is just good books to read over the summer)</p>
