I'm 15 so I guess I'm not ready for it, but I did enjoy the first 150ish pages; I think it's just speed I'm reading at that is frustrating me :/ I enjoy a lot of Steinbeck, some sci-fi, and I liked the Silmarillion (though I admit I skimmed a lot of it) | ||

I've never read a book that actually made me emotional, or made me think hard on something, or anything. In TV or movies I can get excited, nervous, feel inspired, etc., but I have yet to read a book that makes me feel that way. Because of that, I tend not to read. Books just don't entertain me as much. 1984, To Kill A Mockingbird, Brave New World, Frankenstein, none of them created any emotion in me whatsoever. I just get bored whenever I read. Try Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle", or William Styron "Set This House on Fire"... two books I found to be particularly emotional. | ||
