The Stranger by Albert Camus was not a bad book. It revolves around a man who is charged with killing someone who is threatening his friend. I feel like the book might have gone over my head because I was reading it rushedly, but it didn't leave much of an impression on me. It wasn't hard to get into, but once I was finished I didn't feel any different for it, I didn't feel the usual satisfaction I get when I finish a book, I just didn't really care that I had read it. I'm sure I will read it again in the future because I don't plan on getting rid of it yet, but I would suggest if you read this book, to take it slow; I can see the potential of getting a lot out of the book, but reading it in an afternoon is probably not the best way to do it.
