    I just finished reading 1984 for the gazzilianth time and every time i read it i feel so sad and yet so unbelievably angry about what they did to poor old arthur i hate the fact that it was possible to destroy somthing as beautiful as love. GRRRRRRR i feel so angry its unbelievable so please tell me what makes you so angry or so sad.

    I don't think it's really appropriate but i've finished reading a series called "Bartimaeus" and I liked it alot, but i hate how the main character is so casually killed off at the end. Just my 2 cents worth, although i've never read 1984. Is it good, and would you reccomend it? I might take a look at it.

    Ciao,

    1984 was a good book yes but a bit boring. Sad ending yes. Not the saddest.

    Of Mice and Men was sad as well. Hated the ending.

    Scarlet Letter was also a bit sad.... Classic book.

    None would classify as saddest though.

    Ok i'll find out where I can get it, probably chapters though.

    I'm sure I can withstand a bit of "----s" with my head though :P

    By the way Renagade I think it's spelt Renegade.... Just saying because my name in a clan i'm with for Call of Duty my name is -=K']['M=Renegade (KTM = Kill the Machines, wierd name I think).

    It is spelt with an "E" but I originally had it with an "A" so I kept with it. You're right :D
