Re: How do old books hold up?
You read Trixie Belden too? I didn't read a lot, admittedly, but I read a couple; never knew anyone else that had read any books of hers!
Never read VC Andrews though.
Man, I loathed Lord of the Flies. Loathed. Didn't mind Mockingbird as much, but I also didn't read it in school, so that might have helped, being able to read it at my own pace.
Re: How do old books hold up?
I loved Trixie (she was better than Nancy Drew AND the Hardy Boys, which I also read). I got the first few in the series via my mum--they were her copies from when she was a girl (1950s). I was lucky that they reissued the books in the mid 80s, so I have all but one or two of them. Yeah, still have them. *g*
Trust me, you're not missing ANYTHING with VC Andrews--the writing isn't really that good, it was more the shock value of her first book/series--brother/sister rape/incest that made her popular. And the majority of books with her name were written after she died.
With LotF and Mockingbird, it was more that I couldn't get interested in them than a time thing--I'm a fast reader if I like what I'm reading.
Re: How do old books hold up?
I don't really remember a lot about the second movie tbh, and I only saw a bit of the third, but I remember being pissed because Marilla had died. :I
:D My Mum also got me the Trixie Belden books, but my library didn't have a lot of them, so I didn't get to read a lot of them. :(
Oooh, I'll keep that in mind and avoid her- sounds like Not My Thing. |D
I'm usually the same, though I've noticed that for school books I tend to sometimes procrastinate, and read other things. It's... Not a good habit. >_>;
