Ugh. I own up to misspelling “Edgar Allan Poe,” (which has since been fixed) but I did not misspell “Emily Dickinson” and I’m not sure why that was changed. I asked for another update. I honestly will never understand why people are so hostile about such minor things (I’m looking at you, FB commenters).

MsSkeet 3 months ago#2: My heart of hearts, to me, one of the most precious literary quotes. #20: This was required reading for me as a kid, but I had never got around to reading Watership Down. Now, knowing myself and how I feel about animals, I don’t think I have the guts to read it. I don’t think I will be able to get past the first page without crying.

th1nker 2 months agoYou must read it. Yes there are some very sad parts, but there are some awesome heroic parts and some really amusing (LOL) parts… this is quite possibly the best work of fiction ever penned. If you haven’t read it, do yourself a favor and read. I think I’m going to read it again :-D
