Making Up For Monday: Not So Classic






It's Time for Making Up For Monday!

Question: What classic shouldn't be a classic in your opinion?

This one is an easy one for me:  The Old Man and The Sea by Ernest Hemingway.



That book was boring, pointless, and pompous.  All I remember thinking while I was reading it was "Seriously?  THIS is a classic?" 

Ugh....never again Hemingway.  Never again.



Check out more from Making Up For Monday!

    Great post Tiffany! I have yet to read The Old Man and the Sea. I chose Ulysses for my Making Up For Monday post.

      I know I read Ulysses in high school but I cant even remember the plot, so I think I will have to agree with you!

    How about The Red Badge of Courage?

      While that one was really boring, I think actual soldiers might enjoy it, just not me.
