I promise Iwill read "Annie on my mind" I totally forgot about how badly I wanted to read that in HS!!! They actually already banned it in a neighboring school district.. even burned copies of it... out of that list I have already read...

1. Scary Stories (Series) by Alvin Schwartz
2. Daddy’s Roommate by Michael Willhoite
3. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou
5. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
6. Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
7. Harry Potter (Series) by J.K. Rowling (Seen the movies.. ?)
8. Forever by Judy Blume
13. The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
16. Goosebumps (Series) by R.L. Stine (Read every one, even the "pick your own ending" bull shit!)
18. The Color Purple by Alice Walker
19. Sex by Madonna (LOVED IT!)
22. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
26. The Stupids (Series) by Harry Allard (Hilarious books, crappy movies!)
32. Blubber by Judy Blume
39. The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison
41. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
42. Beloved by Toni Morrison (Fucking HATED THIS BOOK!)
43. The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
45. Bumps in the Night by Harry Allard
46. Deenie by Judy Blume
47. Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
51. A Light in the Attic by Shel Silverstein
52. Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
55. Cujo by Stephen King
56. James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
57. The Anarchist Cookbook by William Powell (Haven't read, but I have SEEN it, and I heard thats enough to get me on some sort of FBI list..)
59. Ordinary People by Judith Guest
60. American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis
62. Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret by Judy Blume
69. Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
70. Lord of the Flies by William Golding
74. Jack by A.M. Homes
77. Carrie by Stephen King
78. Tiger Eyes by Judy Blume
83. The Dead Zone by Stephen King
84. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
85. Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison
87. Private Parts by Howard Stern
88. Where’s Waldo? by Martin Hanford
89. Summer of My German Soldier by Bette Greene
96. How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell

oddly enough, I read most of these for school, in my AP classes, or did book reports on them to piss of the teachers or my other English classes, or read them because I heard they were just oh so delightfully scandelous (there really is no other excuse for actually having flipped through Stern's "Private Parts," may god have mercy on my soul)

So........... let me get this right.. is #88 Where's Waldo like the "find the guy in his red and white striped hat/shirt and jeans, and try to find his wizard friend and dog too" the Where's Waldo they are talking about!? If so, those morons should be shot.. or.. put in prison, and forced to find Waldo everyday...
