That book was awesome. "Behold, verily, there is the woman of the scarlet letter: and of a truth, moreover, there is the likeness of the scarlet letter running along by her side! Come, therefore, and let us fling mud at them!". Five year old Puritans make everything better.

Looks confusing, i imagine its much simplier once its rolling.

Good luck with that.

The first few rounds are basically chaos. Sometimes it gets less chaotic from there, sometimes it doesn't. The pirate game (in which I was EC), everyone died. On both sides. There was just an empty boat floating in the middle of the sea.

So you're trying to bore her into never reading....It's more of the same except they actively sabatoge each others lives

I started to try to read Wuthering Heights, then I realized the main characters were kind of unpleasant people.

Oh, and Jane Austen is probably okay. Kissing pretty much means engagement, and the one trampy sister in Pride and Prejudice faces serious consequences for being trampy.
