We have some books that are good and intense, but do keep pushing our limits and shock us. Which books you recall having shocked you?

gee... i didn't read so much during ...my time on earth
my favourite book is "the forest of the hanged" but as a child i loved "Tarzan" i have a collection of 10 volumes and i read them all! I can't say that shocked me,but it sure changed me a lot i used to think i act sometimes like a boy and try to be tough because of those books, but now... i realise that's just me

i read a book called The Hot Zone when i was in school. it's about the deadly ebola virus the book was very graphic for me but i had to read it for a book report.

my younger cousin gave me a book to read called a child called it, i read it in a day and cryed for a week, there is another one called li' mama's rules by an auther called shenska jackson about a single woman who was playing the field a little bit and ended up with HIV

i looked up that book a child called it looks very interesting. i'd prolly cry through out the whole thing.

I'm not easily shocked. Opus Pistorum maybe. It is by Henry Miller. I haven't finished it but I promised myself that I would in an effort to find something of literary value in it. The main character is a horrifying human being.

you will cry!
