Flatland by Edwin Abbot


I had to read this book for my math class. (Why would anyone else read it, honestly?) The book itself was pretty boring, especially the first part, where the narrator just describes the rules and laws of Flatland. The movie, however, is actually pretty good. It's a short film, with Martin Sheen and Kristen Bell as the main characters. You'll only appreciate the movie after reading the book, though. Overall, boring for a regular book, not bad for a math book....watch the movie.
