No, I love LoTR. I reserve the ritual burning for crap such as Catcher in the Rye.

hmm having dropped any class involving literature now, the last 2 books i was forced to read and write a piece of coursework for were, Tess of the Durbeyvilles and A Kestral for a Knave. to date ive read neither, i tuned out on the audiobook of tess' and managed to watch the film Kes for the other. but i did manage to do the essays

Tess of the D'Urbervilles was quite possibly the worst book i've ever read. I literally did burn it, especially since i picked it up for a buck. Now i'm reading the Scarlet Letter in class, which really isn't indearing itself to me

'discrete'?
Stats is relatively easy. Trig on the other hand... *freaks*

Yes. I read it over last summer for English and it was bearable. If you can get past the 'old-style' diction, you'll be fine.
