Thank God I’m not alone! Someone should punish people for mistreating books.

What kind of a fucking genius uses purple/fuchsia to highlight black ink? Thanks, fuckhead.

Good morning! It’s Friday. You know what that means! Share with FridayReads what you’re reading with a reblog or an answer to the question at the bottom of the post and you will be entered to win a copy of THINGS WE DIDN’T SAY by Kristina Riggle.
So, what are you reading?
I’m reading Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman. Head over to FridayReads and tell them what you’re reading so you can win this book!

is/was a fucking pimp.

Sometimes it’s really helpful when people have highlighted passages in textbooks and you’re like, “WOW, you just saved me the trouble of swiping my highlighter across the page! Fuck yeah!!!”.
But other times, you’re reading along and you see something so important and SO essential to the topic at hand but it’s not highlighted. It’s among a sea of white paper and unacknowledged wisdom and you think “WHO THE FUCK READ THIS BOOK LAST? THEY MUST BE A TOTAL FUCKING MORON TO HAVE MISSED THAT!!!”
I’m taking an 8 week course in American Lit., discussing many works that are familiar to me, so I thought I would open it up to share with you guys, too.
If I share the work from class, it will be a week late as to never be charged with plagiarism or cheating but I’d like to know what you guys think about them, too.
The first work we’re delving into is Song of Myself by Whitman. Have any of you read this before? Thoughts, feelings, questions, comments or concerns???
Sometimes I like to pretend the characters from my favorite books are real so I can imagine the advice that they would give me.
