What do you assign to Mordor?

[Galadriel55]

Speaking of English textbooks, my sister and I decided that English (and Lit) classes in school are just gone to Mordor, and we set out on a quest to educate ourselves about all the great books school ignores in favour of mediocre modern ones with "good themes". So perhaps by the age of 30 I will consider myself a well-rounded and well-educated individual. My biggest problem now is that once I finish these books, I want to discuss them with someone, and no one else cares enough to read them.
