Is that the one where the girl is a social outcast and hides in her own room in the school because she got raped?

I don't think I remember enough of it to make any main points besides that rape is bad and can horribly impact one's life. Unless it's another book you're talking about.

It probably isn't on Sparknotes (which I am conveniently using as we speak for The Scarlet Letter), or else he woulda found it. Unless he is teh uber n00b and doesn't use them.

Well contrary to popular belief, books can actually be interesting. I read while I'm playing starcraft usually.

I enjoy reading school books. Not like text books, but books assigned at school. I recently read One Hundred Years of Solitude(awesome) and now I'm reading and have almost finished Night.

Hm, "Speak" actually looks like an interesting book, IMHO. I'll have to go and buy it sometime.

It is a pretty good book. I don't remember everything in it but I felt pretty depressed after reading it.
