love- "an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment"

good news you might already have found it!

unless your'e referring to a person, that's a whole other ball game

i'll say yes, and there is a 50/50 shot they'll love you back

What are your top 3 books that you've read?

Wonder what TyCobb was doing for the past 10 minutes.

Fahrenheit 451 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1984

i dont think its close. i find 1984 to be pretty overrated.

not planning on it, haven't read any of the books- heard good things though (had my friend ruin the first one for me)

movie sounds kind of weird, not sure i want to watch a bunch of kids killing each other, i'll probably jump on the bandwagon late like i do with everything else

Never read the prior, but the latter is a great book.

I haven't read Hunger Games but the movie looks really good.

youve never read Fahrenheit 451? its like the greatest dystopian novel ever.

i actually think Harrison Bergeron is the best, but its a short story, so...

that was good too, haven't read that in a long time

sophie's world blows them both out of the water for me though, that book opened the realm of possibility for me (can get kind of dry during the philosophical history parts though)

451 is awesome too, 1984 just has a soft spot in my heart.

Never heard of it tbh. I haven't read much since 7th or 8th grade, save for a summer when I did at work.

That book sounds interesting. I might have to check that out.

moby dick is really good if you can persevere through the first third of the book (bunch of nonsense before they even get on the dang boat) but things move pretty fast from there

and of course you have to mention treasure island since i'm a big fan of pirates

Post #1255 » by **dockingsched** » Wed Mar 21, 2012 3:03 am

diary of a wimpy kid is an excellent read

A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and Do Androids dream of electric sheep by I believe Isaac Asimov are also great dystopian novels.

book?

I'm in the mood for a song, but I don't know which one.

A better version of that movie would be Battle Royale. Bunch of kids gotta kill each other on some remote island, it's either Korean or Japanese, can't remember.
