Re: Dear Literature Forum,
Do it. It's the best novel I've ever read. Everyone on the Amazon book review thing needs to go choke.

Fine. Read High Fidelity by Nick Hornby. It was made into a great movie but the book was way better. Pretty easy and very enjoyable read.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
I mean, it kind of seemed like you sorted the "House of Leaves" reviews so that all the negatives would come up first. Because it has far more 5* than 1* ratings.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
If you like sci-fi, I would highly suggest you read "Ender's Game."
I don't remember how many pages it has, but it's definitely more than 300. |

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
I actually only linked to the reviews that had one star because bluguerrilla said that "everyone" recommends House of Leaves.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
There's something very wrong in recommending Lolita to Shasta.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
Jack Kerouac is an awesome writer. Also, Sometimes a Great Notion is a great read.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
I took a class on it, I know what it's about, lol. But for the same reason Nabokov is lampooning the reader, I must show caution when suggesting that book.

Re: Dear Literature Forum,
Breaking news oshi--
Number one reason why you should read (and enjoy) Lolita or Crime and Punishment: http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.co...ave-in-common/ This is the greatest thing to happen to me ever. My two favorite fiction books (and one of my favorite nonfiction books) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) I have good taste. (Atlas Shrugged is supposedly pretty cool too, but I've never even touched it.)
