I did not pause as it did not have anything to do with me. Silly rabbit, one directional posts are for kids.

Enough of this jibba jabba! Don't you know it's pointless to direct a question to a specific person in this thread as you will rarely get the desired answer?

 

a: No, I didn't notice - probably because I didn't justget 1000 posts.

q: Has anyone else here read Catcher in the Rye??

 

me and John Hinkley

was that a random but accurate enough reference for you?

 

a: Sure, why not.

q: Should I read it again this winter??

 

Sure, why not. But consider at your young age reading others you have not read.

if you have not, would you consider reading Goodbye Columbus, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, The Oddesy, The Power and the Glory, Othello, Hamlet and Henry by Shakespeare and anything you can get your hands on by William Faulkner?

 

a: I'll have to check some of those out. I really liked Catcher in the Rye, though, and it sort of has a wintery feel to it - that's probably why I want to read it again.

q: Have you read 1984 - George Orwell??

 

yeah. it's subtitled, life with Hillary[:@]

if you haven't, would you consider reading Steinbeck. (Grapes of Wrath, Red Pony, Of Mice and Men)?

 

a: Yeah, definitely. I've heard pretty good things about Of Mice and Men.

q: Which of those have you read?? Which would you recommend most??

 

all of them. doesn't matter where you start, if Steinbeck, Red Pony. Your bright enough to get any of them if you liked Catcher.

Do you/ did you have required reading in the summers?

 

a: No, I didn't. I actually had a list made up of what I wanted to read over the summer, but I gottoo busy withotherthings.

q: Do you like biographies/ autobiographies??
