THIS IS WHY I AM A POOR STUDENT.

I have ~300 pages to read, and a quiz to study for. So, obviously, the smartest choice: do a meme.

where is faulkner on this list? wholly disappointed.

on the other hand, i'm glad my bb james joyce made it, though i'm surprised you want to give him a try since most people hate his guts lmao.

I am against hating on principle! but LMFAO I'm kind of scared tbh. I've also never actually read any faulkner......

aflksjf such a late reply but i had to stop by again to tell you to read sound and the fury. it's really difficult and i had to have somebody hold my hand when i was inching my way through it but oh man, one of the best books i've ever read in my life. it really influenced my writing style too.

AND START OFF WITH DUBLINERS FOR JAMES JOYCE! they're short stories and i think you'll be able to gauge what his style is like in smaller chunks to start off with so you're not hit with massive symbolism all at once hahah

LMFAO THAT IS FANTASTIC

WHY ARE YOU SPOILING THINGS?

LMAO IT'S OKAY. I'm pretty sure my history teacher in 11th grade told us that. IS BOXER THE PIG?

IDK YA is so ...... sometimes. most of the time... but I'll concede that some of them are good.

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time! it was actually kind of knowledgeable hahaha.

i'm memming this for my book reference :>

[nichiyobii]

vivaaaa which of these do you recommend?

[freefallskyline]

I loooooove Tess of the D'Urbervilles. The Great Gatsby, The Three Musketeers, The Count of Monte Cristo, if you haven't read them yet; for something that's not a classic, definitely The Kite Runner or The Time Traveller's Wife. Oh, and I love Jane Eyre :')
