I could never read that book enough. H.G. Wells books are fantastic. I know it's not on the list or anything, but you should consider reading Ordinary People by Judith Guest. The relationships in it are really interesting, and so true to everyday life. 1984 is amazing, but heartbreaking. I could never read that book enough. H.G. Wells books are fantastic.

I think Dorian's perversion made me upset or something. In the (many) years since that, Oscar Wilde has become a favorite of mine, so I really should give it a second chance. After all, I went through something similar with Lord of the Rings (way too young, didn't finish it, tried again, didn't finish it, tried yet again... and finished and loved it). I really don't know what was it about those books that kept calling to me even though I'd had trouble reading them before?
