paying $50 dollars for 5 books seems so outlandish to me,
books shouldnt cost more then $1/100 pages.
blah.

For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern." - William Blake "Psychedelics helped me to escape.. albeit momentarily.. from the prison of my mind. It over-rode the habit patterns of thought and I was able to taste innocence again. Looking at sensations freshly without the conceptual overlay was very profound." - Ram Das

No offense, I had to read that back in Highschool. It fucking sucked. Nothing against jews, but that book made me want to go back to Nazi Germany and join in. It was two fucking Jewish kids bonding over their different views on being Jewish and bitching about psychology and shit.
Disclaimer: I'm not racist, I don't hate Jews, I just think books all about being Jewish are fucking awful. If the book was about Atheists I still would have thought it was fucking aweful.

I was joking about the Nazi part, it was a metaphor for how much I hated the book. I just don't get whats so interesting about it. Its just a story about two Jews going through life as Jews. Enlighten me.

typically people don't enjoy books they read in highschool, maybe because its homework. even if it is a good book. i kind of expected that suggest to be slammed by at least one anti-semitic person. the chosen is pretty tight book
