Ralph Waldo Emerson once said that "Language is the building in which every human being brought a stone" These words say it all. These words are the truth. I love these words. Thanks to men like Emerson we the people can enjoy what litterature has to offer. Apart from the required AP novels, I tend to find myself wandering through the teen section of Chapter's more often than I should. These books have advanced slightly, The days of "Babysitter Club" and Goosebumps" have gone the way of the dinosaurs. Unfourtunately they seem to have been replaced by a certain blood-sucking theme. When was the last time a book character actually died, sans being undead and sparkling? The classics are the way to go, I mean if they were good two hundred years ago, they're good today. Heathcliff could take Edward any day.
