PS
I challenge ANYONE to read (successfully) the original text of Hermen Melville's literay classic 'Moby Dick'.
Oh
My
God
It may well use English words per-se, but..... I am 37. I read ALOT. I could not get past Chapter 1!

I read it.I am 13 and it was not that hard a read.


Now if you want hard try the Iliad(sp) and odesy(sp) by Homer
10,000 pages or mind numbing pain........................ I read it 6 times

Someone else mentioned my very favorite: Watership Down by Richard Adams --- along with Insomnia (Stephen King) and The Talisman (Stephen King). I also collect old children's books from the early 1900's through the 1940's.

You said it! I think that The End could have ended better.

I hated Watership Down, it terrified me as a child, lol

I like Uh-Oh by Robert Fulghum - I may have already posted this on this thread come to think of it, but its such a good book it's worth noting again in case someone missed it and wants to go read it I think you have to be at least 30 to really dig it though.

Thus Spoke Zarathrusta by Friedrich Nietzsche
Doesn't matter how many times you've read it you'll always get something new from it. Unbelievebly deep and an inspirational book for anyone struggling with the constant drudgery of life or understanding their own identity/motivations in life....
