But I guess I'd rather read it with people (seeing as how I'm REALLY NOT looking forward to it) than read it by myself.

Just thinking of that book makes me want to vomit and it very well might happen since I have the flu. <br /><br />Anthem is good though. I think 100 pages is about as much of Ayn Rand as I can stand.

I also appreciate culling down the number of posts. Rand is not that scary once you get into her, The Fountainhead was one of my favourite books in highschool...then again I am a big nerd. Anyways, her novels definitely contain a lot of discussion-worthy topics so looking forward to this, thanks for hosting :)Zoëhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05485997747361791052noreply@blogger.com
