Things fell apart...

I read it a year or two ago, because I never read it in high school for some reason. It was ok, pretty depressing.

I did not read that book, but i was confused as shit in class when people were talking about it

3/22/2013 12:41:59 PM

And basically the same book as "The Good Earth" which I also hated.

^^yeah i did too. We had to do some sort of "Things fall apart day" and so I wrestled as my part.

I remember something about a bicycle.

I bought it form 10 cents from Reader's Corner and then realized everyone else hated it, so I never got around to reading it.

I hated all the required reading in school, including this one.
If I'm going to read, it's going to be something that actually interests me.

Seriously, the only thing I remembered about that shit.

3/22/2013 8:59:52 PM

I liked the book

but I can understand why other white people might not like it

3/22/2013 9:02:24 PM

This is the only book I enjoyed in high school, as it taught me to be fearful of the white man and his churches.

I hated those Cliffs Notes

3/23/2013 9:54:47 AM

it was a half-decent book, but it wasn't great

Out of Africa was at least 3x better

3/23/2013 12:21:04 PM

It was an okay book for required reading. Have an open mind people.

3/23/2013 1:45:08 PM

That book was complete shit. It's not the worst thing ever written, but the amount of praise heaped upon it and it's reputation as an "important" book is undeserved.

3/23/2013 1:47:20 PM

I, too, hated that book.

In fairness, high schools have been pressured to balance out all the classical European literature with some sub-Saharan African reading, and there isn't much to choose from.
