haha, it really is. I tried to stop but... i just keep comin' back. My best guess is because of boredom - it's the only thing that seems logical.RuqeeD wrote:I kicked that habit when I was oh about eight years old.

Finally! I think 'Revolutionary Road' is a little overhyped (in the context of Yates of course, not in relation to other writers). I enjoyed 'Young Hearts Crying' and 'Eleven Kinds of Loneliness'...Of course Revolutionary Road is very good writing, but I didn't enjoy the plot as much.Woodland Nymph wrote:Ten Novels I Hope to Read in the Near Future:
- Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
- Clarissa by Samuel Richardson
- Lorna Doone by Richard Blackmore
- Cry to Heaven by Anne Rice
- Emma; or The Unfortunate Attachment by Georgiana Spencer Cavendish
- Young Hearts Crying by Richard Yates
- Villette by Charlotte Brontë
- Mathilda by Mary Shelley
- The Last Man by Mary Shelley
- The Man Who Laughs by Victor Hugo
I haven't read any of the others in the list
