[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wanted this forum created so that I could talk about books I didn't like. Maybe I'm just not understanding some of these books and maybe they're not written for me but there are still he popular books I really don't like. I won't make them all because that would likely give my identity away.

One I haven't mentioned to anybody is Maya Angelou's 'i know why the caged bird sings". Not to trivialize what she went through but I really finished the book like  seemed like what did I just read. How critical can I be of an autobiography? Especially if it made her who she is? But seeing this put in the same leagues or above invisible man, black boy, native son. I just don't see it.

They're are several others and I hope this doesn't turn into a bash me or bash Maya because I love her other works (especially poetry) but I'm not a fan of that book. [/quote]

I don't get what you didn't like about it.  Be more specific.    [b]I didnt like Invisible man.  I couldn't even finish it[/b] while I know why a caged bird sings was very engaging.[/quote]

Same here.[/quote]
