Why do you dislike Jane Eyre again, and while I'm at it are there any other books common in English lit classes that you dislike so I can see if we're opposed more. That would be fun.
i liked the early sections about school and how things were not good for jane and such, but then it became an incomprehensible romance story with a complete fucking asshole so totally unappealing it's difficult to understand the psychology of a character into him.
i was pretty good with the rest of ye olde classic canon. i like jane austen and beowulf, which are very similar in that
Hm, so we're not so in disagreement, then. Boring.
you're boring
actually I don't think I hated anything in English class es as much as jane eyre
owen meany seemed pretty dull, but I never actually read it
It's not actually an ugly name, it just registers as a made-up fantasy name to me, and i reflexively dislike The Hunger Games despite not having read them because i find the premise unpleasant.
they're actually really good
you can trust me because i reflexively hate popular things + im super picky about stuff and i still like them a good deal
We hardly ever like the same things though!
Still, i will probably read them at some point. It's just the idea of such a horrific dystopia being the setting for escapist teen lit makes me go eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh

On a side note, I think the revisionist genre of "here's a classic story that we all know, except the villain was secretly the good guy and the good guys were secretly Hitler" is mostly pretty bad. Looking at you, book version of Wicked.
I liked that Grendel didn't do that, really, because Grendel is still a bad dude. Not to say that Beowulf isn't fucking terrifying in that book.
But i wouldn't characterize The Wide Sargasso Sea as "here's a classic story that we all know, except the villain was secretly the good guy and the good guys were secretly Hitler".
It's much more intelligent than that would suggest and the characters feel like real people.
As far as i can remember it never actually contradicts the original novel, either, it just offers a different perspective on the events.

Giving The Joker an email account on the Crown's private server was not the best idea Princess Meredith had :|

In elementary school they taught us two different mnemonics for the cardinal directions: Never Eat Soggy Waffles and Never Eat Sour Watermelon
Naturally, being the kind of kid I was, I came up with a much better one: Never Ever Smoke Weed

I mean
I haven't.
i have. It's better than Jane Eyre.
BTAS shares its basic look and a fair bit of its thematics with the first season of The Big O. TNS can back me up on this one.
Also, it was where Harley Quinn originated, and it’s the media I still feel she was handled the best in.
That's her title. Daenerys is her name.
The book is just nasty and meandering.
i won't bother with it, then

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
But jsyk, it's better than that.
What was the best idea Princess Meredith had?

the advantage being that's how it's spelled if you go clockwise
i'm having trouble seeing how NEWS helps unless you actually don't know the points of the compass for some reason
This is basically my entire knowledge of the plot of Rebecca
my childhood was extremely sheltered, i don't think i'd even heard of 'drugs' before i was 10 years old
i was that kind of kid
