Lord of the Flies was a pretty good book... I liked Macbeth too.

I was thinking of Lord of the Flies when I saw this post. At first I didn't like it too much, but then I ended up really liking it.

It was like this with Catcher and the Rye in my English class, almost everybody complained but a good majority of the class really enjoyed it. But the the teacher ruined it by assigning The Road...

Paradise Lost by John Milton and Jonothan Swift's Gulliver's Travels was exactly the same for me.

Definitely To Kill a Mockingbird. I was one who bitched and moaned about reading it (especially since a lot of my friends did too), but I ended up loving it!!!

I thought I would be this way about Treasure Island. I was wrong. I HATE Treasure Island.

Of Mice And Men. It was on the GCSE syllabus and I thought it would be crap, but it turned out to be a deep, thought-provoking and beautiful piece of literature.

I loved 1984, The Sun Also Rises, and Lord of the Flies. Jurassic Park and To Kill a Mocking Bird were pretty good, too.
