I have it ordered from Amazon...should be here any day. Hope it is good because I talked my book club into reading it for our October meeting!

Not quite halfway through, and I might just put it down and forget it. It's "interesting", but not nearly as good as Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time (same author). I just can't get into it.

to: Testimony (Hardcover)byAnita Shreve
Told from different perspectives, none of which give the reader the "whole story". I liked it, except that because it involves high school aged kids, I kept picturing kids from my school that matched the descriptions, so it might be kind of weird to see those kids in school next month! I liked that it didn't try to explain really WHY kids make bad choices, but addressed the fallout and how one decision can change a whole kid's life, and the adults involved, too.

Teaching Outside the Box: How to Grab Your Students By Their Brains (Paperback)
byLouAnne Johnson bookshelves: currently-reading
Determined to read this before school starts. So far the beginning is just confirming what I knew...teaching is hard work, but worth it if you do it right. This is written by the teacher who wrote the book that Dangerous Minds is based on.
