Yea, i read too :) Um... There's an interesting one called The Chrysalids by John Wyndham. It's written like decades ago, but it talks about the people after the supposed "World War III" (But they called it the Tribulation) and how they were so keen on keeping the "True Image of Man" so they banish you if you have like six toes or something. But there's this group of people who were mentally abnormal and were telepathic and they try to keep from being hunted down...

iunno, it was a good read. Kind of like, deep

to quote Homer Simpson

I vowed never to read again after To Kill a Mockingbird gave me no useful advice on killing mockingbirds! It did teach me not to judge a man by the color of his skin, but when am I ever gonna use that?

Beloved by Toni Morrison, its based around slavery. We read this book in class last year, I really liked it a lot because what was going on wasnt just right there, have to think about it.
