bittersweet Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 A place to discuss what novels you're planning to read, what authors you're interested or keeping up with, stuff like that.. So, I'll begin. Worst book you've been required to read for a course/class? Quote Link to comment
misterBee Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 It's nerdy but lately I've decided to read all the Battletech books. Had a bunch when I was younger but never came close to owning them all. These days Kindle versions are cheap so I'm going to try to get through all of them starting from the first one. Every time I try to do this I inevitably end up playing old Mechwarrior games too... 1 hour ago, bittersweet said: Worst book you've been required to read for a course/class? In late middle school (or was it high school? I can't remember) we had to read some book about a girl living in the south with her white trash father. The whole book was just a description of her daily misery, culminating with her father raping her one night while drunk because she resembled her dead mother. To this day I'm not sure why that book was chosen as part of the curriculum. It seemed to be a little-known modern novel picked simply to depress us. I can't really remember the title and I had a hard time finding it online. I think it was called Sue Ellen or something. Searching that title just gives me the name of some author who writes historical romance novels though... Quote Link to comment
bittersweet Posted May 10, 2018 Author Share Posted May 10, 2018 My friend actually said the same thing about re-reading all of the Battletech books. I'll have to check them out. I've been working my way through a lot of free books offered through the website Bookbub. Quote Link to comment
