<p>how can anyone like crime and punishment?</p>

<p>Omg I love Crime and Punishment! It was really good! Such a classic.</p>

<p>Like the OP I also really enjoyed A Hundred Years of Solitude. It is definitely my favorite book of all time. </p>

<p>I wish I had more time to read recreationally. I usually do more reading in the summer, but I have been insanely busy lately and I just can't find the time. :(</p>

<p>waiting for godot is funny</p>

<p>"how can anyone like crime and punishment?"</p>

<p>Crime and Punishment is brilliant. Dostoevsky is one of my two favorite authors; the other is Kafka.</p>

<p>i hate reading but im currently being forced to read "and then there were known" and "Sarum" for honors english... sarum is god awful and im only 60 pgs. into and then there were none (im supposed to be done with it by monday)</p>

<p>I'm currently reading Wealth of the Nations by Adam Smith.</p>

<p>I have to add Grapes of Wrath to my list. </p>

<p>Loved the book, except for its ending. Deep meaning, sumamrizes the book, but just plain odd..</p>

<p>Mostly sci-fi and fantasy strangely enough, LOTR and Chronicles of Chrestomanci are favorites.</p>

<p>I enjoy most of the literature I read for AP English...</p>

<p>Call of the Wild was a good novella.</p>

<p>Also like the Little House Series; the exemplar of "show-not-tell"
simple and spell binding.</p>

<p>i'm reading "extremely loud and incredibly close" and "sex, drugs, and cocoa puffs" at the moment. both are very good. i just finished "freakonomics" and reread david sedaris' "naked" and i want to read "a clockwork orange" next. and maybe try to finish "the fountainhead" which i kind of gave up on before. yeah i don't really read one book at a time.</p>

<p>I'm going to start "Pandora" by Anne Rice, in probably 2 weeks.</p>

<p>"Ishmael" by Quinn is a pretty good book too. A bit on the preachy side.</p>

<p>I'm currently reading "Moby-Dick" and loving every minute of it. For Xmas, I'm getting a lot o books.</p>

<p>juliusmonky. I loved Extremely Loud and Incredibly close, as well as Freakonomics. </p>

<p>Right now I'm reading Malcolm Gladwell's Blink and David Schickler's Sweet and Vicious, which is btw an amazing book, David Schickler is such a cool author, I met him in NY this year and he is an awesome person too. Go read the book! lol.</p>

<p>Just finished Siddhartha for school. Was not fond of it. Also just finished a fantastic biography of Marie Curie, entitled Obsessive Genius.</p>

<p>I am reading Heart of Darkness right now for English-I though it was going to be really bad but its okay.
But I just finished this great book called Northern Light and I recommend it-really great:)
Also, Nervous Conditions-really good as well</p>

<p>Currently, for Lit Class I am reading 'I heard the Owl Call My Name'. Its got a good message, but its not really that interesting.</p>
