I remember being bored to tears with 90% of the books I had to read in high school.
I was reading a book a week outside of what we were forced to read in school. The books I read for fun were great compared to "The Classics" that were being forced on us.
I wish they'd had HAVE SPACE SUIT, WILL TRAVEL, by Robert Heinlein on the list of books to read for school- or something by Asimov, Bradbury, or Arthur C. Clarke.....
