Who has read flowers for Algernon?? Do you like it or not?

I read it in language, but I only read a short section of it through Progress Report 13. It is so sad!!!!!!

It is really good. I enjoyed it alot, you should get your hands on a copy.
Reply:It's not a bad book. I read it in middle school. The concept and theme are good and that is why they still have you read it, but I prefer more modern novles. If you want sad books, there are plenty out there. I also read "The lottery rose" in middle school. It is even more sad.
