Great Gatsby sucked... don't like that book at all. Catcher In the Rye, The Hope by Herman Wouk and the Caine Mutiny. The Hope is a interesting book but its freaking 700 pages, and I have to do a book report on it on the 22nd.

Just finished one book, and started on another.
The one I just finished is "Next" by Michel Circhton. It's about the legal and morality issues surrounding genetic science. Extreamly good book.

And I am right now reading "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley. It's about a time in the far future where people are not "born", but made, each one made to fill a survice in socity. Each and every being, made into the perfect piece of a puzzle. Short of a few "savage resorvations", there is no such thing as religion. Activitys that one would do on thier own, such as reading, do not exsist. All of socity is structured to always be "happy", always busy with social activitys.

The real interesting thing is, how much today's socity has become like this socity that Aldous Huxley wrote about such a long time ago.
