Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe- 5 Stars
Read this in high school. Don't remember much about this- or many other books I read in high school, for that matter- except that it was depressing.
That's why I read it too...and that it was. As the title suggests, things fall apart.
Night by Elie Weasel-4 stars
Read this one in high school too. Got a little bit more out of it than the Achebe.
I found the Achebe less depressing, that's really the difference for me.
Stalking Darkness-Lynn Flewelling-4 stars
This sort of makes me laugh. This was one of the best written of the Nightrunner series and really carried through with the promise of the earlier Bone Doll's Twin. I discovered it in 2010 and Flewelling is one of my favorite authors now.
I did definitely enjoy these books, at least the one's I read. For some reason, my book store seems to only carry the first three.
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley-3 Stars
I've heard otherwise from most people, actually, though I haven't read BNW. I did read an anthology called Brave New Worlds though. 
I really don't see why 1984 is enjoyed by the masses. I slept through the entire book. It is my opinion that Brave New World had a better plot. And I guess that's... something...but I'd suggest reading it just to make the comparison.
Traitor's Moon by Lynn Flewelling-4 Stars
You should've read Hart's Hope by Orson Scott Card. One of his main characters was named Enziquelvinisensenee Evelvenin. Srsly. o.O
Keeping Time by Stacey McGlynn(my mom)-1000000 Stars.
That's pretty cool! I wish my mom would write something.
Yes. We are all very proud of her.
Oh and my username is what it is because I couldn't think of a better username...I'm not trying to be obnoxious.

Certainly we care. 
Interesting mix you had there, including a few I mean to read.
