It's Friday ... I'm Bored
Aug. 20th, 2004 10:17 amSince I was curious to see how my favorites would go over ... I submitted them to
thebookyoucrew the other day. Ultimately, I was rejected - but I at least tried. :)
Mainly I wanted to try and join because it was killing me to see people mis-spell the titles and authors of their favorite books ... Dumbliners by James Joyce stands out as a classic, also, authors such as Jonathan Heller (he wrote Catch-22 y'know), and Herman Woux.
Best yet - The Outsiders, written by C. Thomas Howell. (S. E. Hinton is having a conniption as I write this ... heh)
Since they'd been encountering a recent deluge of trolls and highly defensive sorts that got bitchy and easily rankled when a NO vote came down, I thought it best to be myself - and be respectful.
With that, I give you my list - along with a brief explanation of why the book made my cut:
