deepfriedtwinkie reblogged
we were all forced to read “classics” in school so reblog and put the one you actually ended up liking a lot and the one you can’t fucking stand in the tags
my fave is Lord of the Flies and I ironically enough want to burn every copy of Fahrenheit 451. trash
#I ended up loving#The Great Gatsby#but it didn't kick in until years later; like last year I just went ''oh...I wanna buy that now''#and there were several that did absolutely nothing for me at all#but one I remember off the top of my head is#Lord of the Flies#also? I discovered in college that I hate reading Shakespeare. I LIKE Shakespeare; I just don't wanna read the scripts#sucks the life right out of it and makes it tedious for me; I'd rather watch a movie or production#'cause like...why do we even READ the scripts anyway? we don't do that with anyone else. that's not a huge thing people do for a reason#plays are meant to be seen not read#also I had an absolutely awful professor who sucked all potential enjoyment out of every last interaction with the text so#yeahp#reading#personal
