I had to read this book in 9th grade and there are very few required reading books that I don't like, but I specifically remember hating this one. Maybe I would understand/enjoy it more reading it at an older age, but I have no intention to find out when there are so many other books I want to read. Maybe one day I will reconsider because I'm sure it had something to do with my maturity, but at this point in time, my rating is very low.
