It as really good. The ending was a little bit sad though. I felt bad for Hester...
I'm gonna finish
and then I'm going to read
instead of the Clive Cussler book. that one will have to wait. And Im also reading, kinda,
. :P My mom wants me to read it cause i just started my own business. it's kinda cool.
Would anyone be interested in reading any of the following books with me? As a... 'Buddy' read I guess. I have to read two of them at least for school though I'd be interested and reading them all. But I have 6 weeks of summer left and I need the motivation to get through the books...The Power of One
The Great Gatsby
The Namesake
Any book by Bill Bryson
Mountains Beyond Mountains
The Book Thief
West by the Night
The Bluest Eye
Freedom Writers’ Diary
The House of the Scorpion
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Aloha!There are several books on your list I am interested in! Thing is I JUST, this afternoon did a 16 book buying spree! Not one of these match up w/ what I ordered. Bummer!
Is your list must reads?
Also, Scarlett Letter... Thumbs up? Or Down?
~Annie
Thumbs up. Depressing/happy ending. Not too bad.Yes unfortunately I have to read two of these books I wish they could be anything else. Meh. I'll deal I supposed. *sigh* just not sure where to start... I own two of the books already. One I've read, the other I only read half because it was kind of boring... But I always said I'd read both eventually. I'm thinking I'd start from the top and work my way down. They're all cheaper on my nook so that's where I was gonna get them.

Oooooo! Which book by Bryson do you think?
I'm up for anything. Do you have a preference?I heard Walk in the Woods is good.
i read the reviews for that one. it looks interesting. but i kind of want to read his one on shakespear. Shakespeare: The World as Stage
It's really super! I loved it...Sorry to but in, but it WAS a fast & fun read, that I think U both could enjoy! 'Nuff said!
It does look good! Thanks for the seal of approval, Annie :)When would you like to read it?
which one is she talking about? :Pand maybe we could start with the wallflower? cause i just bought that one. em... what date do you think we should have it read by? Or do you wanna set dates as to when we should have a certain part read? :P
Oh good point - I assumed she meant the Shakespeare one. How is the Wallflower book divided? How many chapters? Pages?
well, in the version i have theres 4 parts and an epilogue. so im assuming thats what it looks like in most of them.
OK I made a thread hereI think instead of setting a date or sections we should use spoiler tags so we could read at our own pace and others could join the discussion as well.
Just indicate what part/pages you're discussing before the tag.
any suggestions on what to read next? The Power of One
The Great Gatsby
The Namesake
Any book by Bill Bryson
Mountains Beyond Mountains
The Book Thief
West by the Night
The Bluest Eye
Freedom Writers’ Diary
The House of the Scorpion

from school. I'm also reading a college book thingy. Bt I can't remember the name of the book. :PAlso, I'm homeschooling this year. Which is cool. I'm a 12th grader! WHOO! Can't wait for college!
