i read this when i was 14. totally scandalized.
three months later i still couldn't sit in a chair without wondering what my own asscheeks would taste like if i ate them sashimi-style.

I've seen the movie wayyyy back then and always wondered about the book and had just added it on my TBR a day or two ago. I can't really remember exactly what happened in that movie.
thank god for small mercies
Tat bad huh? lol
it was pretty intense. the movie killed me, too
I bet it's a book that would put your heart through a grinder. Which was better? The book or the movie?
probably the movie. the book got a little dry a couple places.
I see. So for this one the movie is the winner. :) I might attempt to re-watch it then. Thanks.
Now I'm wondering how my ass would taste sashimi style. Thanks for that... I guess....:P

God I love you! I must've stared at that damn cat for three minutes while giggling like a loon.
heh. it's the best cat ever, right? the internet is awesome
I love this book second time reading it though it can be slow at times.
i don't doubt that knowing how it all turns out can probably kill a bit of the suspense on a second read
It is too bad that you read the book so young. The idea of eating human flesh is quite repulsive to most people. However, some extreme situations might make it more palatable. The tragic situation confronting the survivors of the crash explains the reasons for breaking the taboo of cannibalism. One may disagree with their decision. Nevertheless, some questions deserve reflection. 鈥淎live鈥� does this.
I read this in high school, because of their will to live, they were treated like lepers. People could not relate. I understood completely after reading of their horrific situation.
