'Out of Africa' or 'Lord of the Flies'?
I'm trying to decide if I should read 'Out of Africa' or 'Lord of the Flies' for a school assignment. I was wondering which one would be a better pick for a school assignment (with typical things such as theme, plot, literary elements, character, setting, etc.) and which was a more interesting read. I started 'Out of Africa', and it seems pretty good so far, although there have been a few boring moments, but most books have a few those. I was just wondering, overall, which is more interesting.
Any opinions?

I would personally choose Lord Of The Flies.
I'm doing at moment of college, acting :)
It's really interesting and focusing on innocence children trying to survive on an island.
There are some great charecters - bossy(jack), peacemaker(ralph), and piggy (fat, innocent and bullied) for example. There are so brilliant themes - power,conflict,bullying,survival,relationships etc and I don't find a dulll moment at all.
but thats my opinion,
hope I helped :)

I read "Lord of the Flies" in my Freshmen year of high school. I found it to be an interesting book but I found it to have a lot of themes in the book as well. I was able to finish writing assignments and even a lot of pages for papers that were assigned. At times the book has its boring moments and times where the book seems to be yet another sequel to "The Hatchet" (which in my opinion was a horrible book).
Hope I helped! Happy Holidays!
