What Book Are You Currently Reading ?

[Master]

I've got a couple of Twain books, only Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer, I've never got around to reading them even though I really want to.

I'll probably add them to my list of definites for the new year

I would have figured you'd have been all over his books. I've read them both for school, but there's reading for school and reading for pleasure so I will approach them differently this time. Also Twain's autobiography I would have thought would have been intriguing to a big reader like you.


Salinger is one i haven't read before but upon hearing how fucking brilliant he was I am certainly interested in reading his works.

I think that is the problem I had with getting round to Finn and Sawyer, I know that they were books that people read in school which kind of put me off, I don't know why it just kind of did.
I've never been one for autobiographies either, I've read a fair few but I prefer fiction 99% of the time.
As for Sallinger, Catcher in the Rye was really good but I think it is more for young adults but still one that should be read, I've never really heard anyone talk about his other stuff.

Saying that I was put off by Twain being school reading is strange considering I had to read 'of mice and men' in school and I loved it.

El Kabong had to read English classics and hated every page of it. His resentment is why he hates us English.
