1. The best book I've ever read is still Fools Rush In by Bill Carter (thanks again Kieran). Amazing story from a city (Sarajevo) under siege. It's just amazing.

    Ah, conspiracy theories, huh, Aaron?
  2. Catcher in the Rye- JD Salinger

    and with that alone, I nominate myself as an early runner for post of the year.

    Sorry, my Walrus Appreciation Topic already won.
  4. You've clearly never read Catcher in the Rye.
  5. No, I haven't. Thanks for the tip You should really read Fools Rush In if you haven't, it's the most amazing book.
  6. I'll have to check it out.

    Catcher in the Rye is much more of a basic introspective premise. Revolves much less around a plot as it does the concept of youth, adulthood, innocence, and becoming.
  7. You usually study Catcher in the Rye in English at school. It's a popular choice.

    I'm currently studing The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. If you want a short book, which leaves you mindfucked in the end, choose it.
  8. "Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be."
