I literally can't put this down. I say I'm gonna read a page or 2 and I read for HOURS. 3 or 4. Every time. This is what a book should be. Am I a Mark person now? No, I'm a Tom person always and forever, but Mark is great, this book is great. The fact that Fahrenheit-182 is beside Fahrenheit-451 in my favorite books is amazing.

Who the hell knows? Not me" (124).

I keep wanting my teacher to assign more chapters, that means I'm enjoying it, right?

This is so off the rails its great

"People have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order, so they'll have have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say" (116).
"My God--life! Who can understand even one little minute of it?" (124).

and i will have Who Wrote Holden Caulfield? in my head every time i read this

Meow is my favorite chapter because what do you mean "[t]here was a sign hung around my dead cat's neck. It said, 'Meow'"?

Really cool how the chapters are so short.
He signed a letter "fraternally yours" and I laughed so hard.
