These last couple of pages are depressing. King, Poe, and Lovecraft all need to be devoured before you die.

Start here:

King - Salem's Lot
Poe - The Tell-Tale Heart
Lovecraft - The Colour out of Space

Nope, she still has a job there.

Actually all things considered my high school was pretty decent, just that one class. AP English my junior year was awesome.

as long as they still read the outsiders idgaf

I'm so glad I read that on my own and not through school. I read almost (maybe everything) she published.

I literally don't think we read anything longer than a short story during my entire time at school. American public schools + the South = retard factory

We read Kafka in school.
Win.

i had to in university. i know that doesn't count but still a win on its own.

I read Hamlet, Turn of the Screw, Things Fall Apart (I was literally the only person in my class who saw the greatness), Catch-22, and A Clockwork Orange in high school, some of my favourite books.

we read Things Fall Apart too. i guess it was alright.

Read Hamlet on my own when I was 11ish, just because there was a copy lying around. :D Catch-22 and A Clockwork Orange are faves too. I'm (pleasantly) surprised a school would assign the latter.
