I liked To Kill a Mockingbird so much, I actually tried to make a pokemon parody of it (To Kill a Chatot), but it comes nowhere close to doing justice to the original work, and I probably won't end up finishing it.
@supereffective: I read Ender's Game last year for school. Personally, I enjoyed it.

Not counting fanfics:
On my summer reading list is a Dirk Pitt book by Clive Cussler. Being a fan of that series, I'm reading that.

I've never heard of it. Why sad? Is it boring or something?

Calling it boring is the understatement of the millennium. It took me a day to read a page because I couldn't stay interested in it. Not to mention that it is written in old english, which makes it that much harder to read and that much less interesting.

I'm overly prepared for college considering I have four years left of high school. I've already decided which universities I'm applying to and which teachers I'll ask for recommendations on my application.
