from what i've seen, intelligence has nothing to do with one's ability to interpret and understand a fucking novel. we're not working on the norton reader here. i see kids every day who are half retarded voice their opinions on books that are considered "masterworks" without batting an eye. if you are scared away from a book club, which should be centered around expressing one's own individual experiences, just because it forces you to communicate your own ideas, then you really don't belong in one.
that's all i'm saying.
