    My school just released the summer reading list, and one of the books listed is called Lolita...I've researched it and it seems really good. But I wanted to see if anybody here has read it.



    Please tell me how was it, and if I should buy it.

    I liked the story but overall it felt a bit too long and I'm not a big fan of the genre altogether... Still, it's a classic. What kind of stories do you usually like?
    Also, you immediately speak of buying but can't you borrow it in the library?

    Well, I like a lot of genres but I seem to land in the non-fiction/fiction areas of reading....but I am open to really anything

    The librarys down here dont have may copies and most are ordered by people beforehand, so It would take me 2 months before I get my copy *They go by last name...and my last name is almost at the end of the alphabet...-_-*

    "fiction/nonfiction" covers a lot of ground xD...

    I've never read it, but if you think you'd enjoy it and nothing else on the list stands out to you, then go for it.
