That's cool. I'm a literature person and a fantasy person. (You can be both you know) Here are my faves:
The Inheritance series- Christopher Paolini
The Harry Potter series- J.K. Rowling
The Lord of the Rings- Tolkien (Its fantasy and old)
The Three Musketeers- Alexandre Dumas
The Count of Monte Cristo- Alexandre Dumas
Treasure Island- Robert Louis Stevenson
Kidnapped- Robert Louis Stevenson (once you get over the scottish dialect, it's very good)

I think I read the worst book ever this summer for school. The Pearl. It just didn't do it for me. The other one was okay though. The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman. I liked it pretty well.

those are all good books

and i agree with u about the Pearl, i didn't overly like it either, but some of his other books are ok

Yeah the Pearl was a little too I don't know. It didn't work for me either.

I haven't read any other John Steinbeck yet, but I'm sure he must have written something good. Started back to school today, and tomorrow I have a test. Wow, that was fast!

Well I had to read Of Mice and Men last year for school it was pretty good if you like that kind of thing but I didn't like it much. Part of this might have been all the work we had to do with it.

meh, steinbeck was ok. of mice and men sucked, however i found the ending a bit humorous in a tasteless way. i heard grapes of wrath was decent, but havent had the time to read it.

east of eden was ok, the ending was different, but it was a good book

Ok, the Pearl was HORRIBLE. OF Mice and Men was decent, and Grapes of Wrath was so boring, I couldnt get past chapter 4. I spark noted it and got an A+ on my essay.

you must have easier english teachers than me, if i spark noted something i'd fail the test and the essay

SparkNotes + (lightly) reading the book actually go really well together.
