I think the fact that this is an old thread and shart hasn't visited the site in 2 weeks might have more to do with it...

That might explain it.

I can't remember much of what we had to read over the summers in high school, apart from Ethan Frome, Macbeth, and Silas Marner. I looked at my old high school's website expecting to see something horrible and terrifying, but it doesn't look like they've changed much in the past ten years (apart from The Devil in the White City, they're all similar to books we had to read).
