Which one? The one by Machiavelli or Sun Tzu? Both are good books in my opinion. :wink:

Though as for the worst book I ever read would have to be Animal Farm.

Jeez, I couldn't disagree more to be honest, I thought Animal Farm was a fantastic, fantastic book. I was reading it along side 1984 though, which may have helped me see more of what was happening in Animal Farm... I dunno, I still thought it was a great read. I only read it a week or so ago...
I'm still reading 1984, and up until the point I'm at it's genius, but now the main character is reader from 'the book' and it's taking a lot of will power to read through it...

i dont read books over the summer for school but i was forced to read LE MISREABLES for english class and i said f it after the 2 page of only understanding the basic perepositions and articles (french books = sad waffle)

im surrently being forced to read le morte de arthur (the death of arthur) obviously about king arthur and it was written by sir thomas mallory and idk..kinda dry...better than le mis..

oh yeah also was forced to read great expectations and didnt read that one..cliff notes + spark notes ftw!

The worst book I've read for summer reading are: Blest the Beast and Children, Bean Trees, and Lord of the Flies. I hated those books with a passion.

Predictable????? You predicted that he was going to shoot this best friend? I doubt that.

The dog getting killed heavily hints at it, I sort of guessed it was going to go that way after he killed that woman. It's not easily predictable but its hardly unexpected either.

Brad phrased it better than I did, that's pretty much what I was trying to say.

Como agua para chocolate. Not so fun when you're not fluent in Spanish.

"Like water for chocolate" It's a novel by Laura Esquivel. It's been translated into several languages, but we're required to read it in the original Spanish.

I don't know what the worst book to read would be, but i've not been able to turn the pages of The Colour of Magic, by Terry Practhet, but that's simply because I'm lazy. xD

I'm currently reading The Art of War.

I did too, but stick with it, it's a good book. And when you're done read (also by Pratchet) the amazing maurice and his educated rodents.

I didn't even know there was a movie. The book is great, though.
