- I hated The Call of the Wild when I read it for school.
Which I guess is...weird, bc I loved White Fang when I read it later, and in general I tend to rlly like stories about animals. But Call of the Wild was so boring. The protagonist never seemed to struggle with anything so it felt like there were no stakes and that made it hard to want to read.
The fight with Spitz that they built up to for so long was over in, like, two seconds and after that I was like okay, Buck's never going to struggle or fail at anything. Gotcha. Thanks Jack.
