Lord of the Flies by Sir William Golding
Hated it in high school. Loved it in university. Movie was decent. Simpson’s adaptation was awesome.
-
The Scent of Rain and Lightning by Nancy Pickard
Unbalanced. The entire novel was spent leading up to an ending that was wrapped up far too quickly and neatly.

Miss Wyoming by Douglas Coupland
Not my favourite, but still quite good. Like Girlfriend in a Coma, it’s an odd love story.
-
The Virgin Cure by Ami McKay
Brilliant. Disgusting and astonishing that it’s based on historical facts.
-
Still Life with Woodpecker by Tom Robbins
Too many tangents, but the relevant story line is actually quite good.
-
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
Book: Very charming. A fabulous tale of love, distrust, enchantment and a whiskey loving circus elephant. Beautifully written. Movie: Meh

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
I know that the ending makes the most sense for the trilogy. I know that! Geez. Doesn’t mean I have to like it.
-
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Brilliant, really. A thrilling and desperate melange of The Lord of the Flies, Gladiator, and Survivor. Couldn’t put it down.
