Almost every book I read back when I was a school student.
Each month we had to read a boring book chosen by the school, and at the end of each month we had a annoying test with questions like: "When the protagonist discovered the truth, what was the emotion he felt?" Or "How did the author felt when writing this?" So I had to read 300 pages of a boring book and pay attention to each detail each month.
I don't dislike reading, actually I enjoy good books, but reading something against my will is sickening.
The goddamn Grapes of Wrath.
"What did the dust on the plain signify?"
Who the fuck caaaares, this book is boring and depressing.
I've always been a bookworm but fuck a lot of the shit they made us read in high school.
