Actually, I'm planning on reading all the versions, so after I'm done reading them, maybe I'll post a review.
yes. I'd like to see more books reviews here. Also if you or anyone else wants to review a book I already reviewed you can add it onto the thread or you can PM me and I'll put it after my review.
Quote: And just about EVERY 'Romance novel' written by a women creates an equally unbelieveable male protagonist (aka SNL's 'The Lusty Woodsman').
Romance novels are all crap. Their the equivalent of romance movies, which are pure evil. But I agree with the writing the opposite sexes part. Most books I've read by male writers write their women as victims. In almost all of Dan Browns books the women are always on the verge of being raped or killed. Thats one of the things I didn't like about his books.
Quote: While I do recommend the book, I can understand why some people wouldn't enjoy it. It was written in the 1920s-1930s, around the same time as books like The Great Gastby. However, the style of the book is almost completely Victoria (about 30-40 years before Gastby). In fact, Lawrence enjoys poking fun at the modern artists. Considering I only partially liked Gastby, I have no objection to that.
The Great Gatsby is one of the most overrated books of all time. I was forced to read it my junior year and I hated it. I tried to read it a couple weeks ago and couldn't get past the first couple chapters. A lot of it has to do with the way its written.
