/lit/ - Literature

I read NASCAR romance novels.

Pic related.

I was wondering why the fuck no one mentioned this yet.

Your friend is an idiot.

Shutter Island, however, is one case where the movie is superior to the book. The book is still good. I rather like Lehane.

how's that self promotion working out for you?

Does she do talks at the school at all? Have you ever had the chance to go to one?

Also, yeah, autism symptoms are pretty close to schizophrenia symptoms, whether you meant to be that intelligent in what you were saying or not. When she was a child they were still diagnosing autism as "infantile schizophrenia". Autistic people can be bizarre and offputting to anyone who doesn't have the patience to understand what's going on in their heads.

This is true. Anyone read it? Or anything by Temple?

I am itching to talk to people about this, but I don't think it's possible to have a serious conversation about an autistic person on 4chan.

Team Jacob. Fuck all you uppity niggers.

>thread about women devolves into a bunch of dudes calling each other fags.

This is Freud's wet dream.

I've written several, and published one. I haven't written anything short in a long time, though, I've been pecking away at a couple of unfinished novels instead.

You can't really do much better than Battle Cry for Freedom. National Geographic put out a book called Eyewitness to the Civil War that has an excellent collection of photographs, maps, and illustrations from the 1860s.

Thinner is kind of shit. Honestly, The Regulators is the only Bachman book I thought was worth reading.

Yes, it's frequently quoted as glitters though. At least by us dirty fucking Amerifags.

>>500083
Yes. Merchant of Venice.

It's on my ankle/top of my foot, not the bottom.

A cousin of mine has 'not all that glitters is gold' tattooed to her wrist. She had no idea what it was from until I pointed it out to her. Hurrrdurrr.

Pic is my tattoo.

This movie has been "in progress of going into progress" for a good 10 years. It will probably stay that way for another 10 years.

10 definitely isn't Prey. Go for Grapes of Wrath.

The stories in it are interesting, and worth knowing to get a sense of the history of Middle Earth, but Christopher Tolkien is a hack and did a shitty, shitty job cobbling it all together.

It's called homework, and OP should do it his own damn self.

2 is beowulf, annd 7 is definitely the scarlet letter

When I was 9 I decided that I was in love with Jack London, scribbled his name in hearts all over my notebooks, and read as many things he wrote as I could get my hands on.

I found out a few years later that he was a homeless drug addict for a good chunk of his life and was thoroughly embarrassed.

Whatever, To Build a Fire is still one of the best pieces of fiction I've ever read.
