I would strongly advice against reading the book and taking the F. Seriously, I'm warning you. Oh please, Lord of the Flies is easy as hell, not even close to a bad book. I had to read Great Expectations and Things Fall Apart my freshman year. Sophomore year I had Lord of the Flies, Cry the Beloved Country, The Fall, and Antigone. The Fall was so damn confusing. Junior year I said [bleep] it to honors lit, I hated it and didn't want to deal with an unnecessary class anymore, so I was in regular lit. feelsgoodman.jpg
