So, has anyone read 'As I Lay Dying?' If you have please post on this thread. I need to know EVERYTHING about this book to do a report.
I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize. My friends, I don't feel that I have already arrived. But I forget what is behind, and I struggle for wha

i hated reading this book. after having read The Grapes of Wrath and James Joyce's A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, I found As I Lay Dying to be tedious and uninspired.
it's basically a family whose mother has died and they are traveling, with her body, to fulfill her dying wish to be buried with her mother and father.
along the way, it's found out that one of the children is the illegitimate son of the family physician.
one of them goes crazy at the very end. and the father picks up a mail order bride.
just spark note the book. it's a lot easier that way.

A little bit too screamo, but still something different to listen to when in the mood.
I like these calm little moments before the storm.

No, but the bands alright.
Who needs action when you have words?

Indeed, that's a novel idea but you see, the time has come to heed the drum. I ended up doing the assignment without reading the book. How clever of me! Anyway, thanks cause it was due today.

My novel idea: actually read the book.
And then, as the books were told, Fina replied: "A can of worms, my dear friend? What has this to do with reason?"

Chill everyone. Let's not get hostile. Everyone has their own taste in music. Anyways, how did this get on music? Well, for now have love, peace and stay in school.

Hey singer shove it up your a**. I just said they were good not the best. Rise Against is the best. So don't tell me I need help when you don't even know half of my music selection.
