The Way the Crow Flies

A novel written by Ann-Marie MacDonald, often recommended in grade 12 English classes. Whatever you do, DO NOT READ IT. It's 400 pages of boring, followed by 400 pages of pure trauma-inducing scenarios.

"Bro, have you read The Way the Crow Flies for class yet?"

"Haven't you heard? That book's terrifying! No way I'm reading it."
