SO, I was looking at the list of books the other day, and I saw one that I really liked. (the giver)
Anyways, I've been convinced that the book list didn't have any books, so it didn't really matter what I picked. Since I don't know so many books, and I know that at least one of the books on the book list is good, I suddenly feel like I could find a book that I actually enjoy. I like Gulliver's travels and all, but not truly enjoy. So if anyone just read a book that they really liked for their blog, please tell me so I can maybe even enjoy this blogging experience. Or, if you know a good book that's on the list, please tell me I would really appreciate it.
Ruli, remind me to give you an essay Jonathan Swift wrote called "A Modest Proposal." I promise, it's funny. It's not The Human Comedy :-) Reading it may shed some light on Swift's commentary on society (as you so astutely put it). He definitely doesn't like people (as you might have guessd from the last place he visited--with the horses). Swift is a kind of a nasty guy, when you think about it...
ReplyDeleteAnyway, four stars for you for sticking it out even with the old English!
