-- the most boring book you've ever had to read (https://www.jusunlee.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=1938)
the most boring book you've ever had to read
the most boring book I've ever had to read was Conrad's Heart of Darkness. it's about these guys that are on a boat traveling the Congo River in Africa. it's so boring!!!! but it was worth reading.
Argh..... Um.. It was called 'The Pearl'. I've forgotten who wrote it. It is something you should read I guess if you want to learn about cultural/social attitudes and you want a short book.. but yeah. I remember that the author was known for having unhappy endings. It was such a boring book though /:
hmmm, "The Jungle," "Grapes of Wrath" (not incredibly, but still), maybe even "Anna Karenina" (it's interesting so it's not that boring, but i just didn't feel like reading it)

the odyssey, ugh. you would think that it would be fun to read, but when you actually see the words, it's pretty long.

Fahrenheit 451 was all right. It had enough abundance of literary elements and allusions that it was interesting to keep on reading it. I really like the end of the book too. Love that part

Really? I did NOT pick up on any literary elements or allusions when I read it. I read it for my English class in the 7th grade and i remember hating it. I never really understood it. I guess I should go back and reread it. May I ask what the literary elements were though?
