Just bought most of my books for next quarter, and (so far!) I'm at a grand total of 81.95! *whoot*
I still need two books, one being Daisy Miller for American Novel, and the other being my Psychology of Men textbook which I can't get till the day of class. So I'm expecting books to be at around $200 this quarter.
Anyway, I'm pretty excited about the books we'll be reading in American Novel next quarter - they're all books I've wanted to read and had on my list but never got around to it. All of them, save one.
The books I'm looking forward to:
The Great Gatsby
Daisy Miller
Catcher in the Rye (I finally get to read it!)
Grapes of Wrath
Color Purple.
Exciting, no?
The book that I do not want to ever even look at because I hate it so much:
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.
I detest this book. Stewing raging hatred isn't strong enough to describe my feelings for it. I realize that it is an American Novel class, so I pretty much figured it'd be on the list. But, as a midwestern boy (don't know how it is in the rest of the States), I was forced to read that book in 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th grade. I GET IT ALREADY!!! Grrr. *kicks it*

And hey, at least you're not Jason. He had to read Gone With The Wind in high school. Bleach!
