Lord of the Flies

This book surpassed my already low expectations and went even lower if that were possible.

My attempts at appreciating this book either ended up in my falling asleep or having to close the book as I just couldn't read any further. Maybe it's just me and I'm not in the right mood to analyse and read between the lines or something. It's certainly not a book that I'd be recommending. It's perhaps great as a coursework read but definitely not as a leisure-read.

I give it two stars because I do appreciate certain inspirative descriptions and maybe some of the themes? I'm not sure if I'd read it again, I might if someone really convinces me with valid points that would make me see the book differently
