As much as I feel sorry for all of those people who were ostricized in the destruction of Pearl Harbor, I seriously can't get into "Farewell To Manzanar." IDK why! I swear! I read it, and two pages later, I want to put it down and do something else. I mean I even like reading, but this is too real! Maybe it's just too depressing for me! IDK It's sad, but true!
