    Let me know how you like My Sister's Keeper.
    And I was at the bookstore yesterday and I didn't see Along for the Ride, I'm thinking about asking for it for Christmas. Is it published yet?

    Hi Mrs. Risell,
    I really liked My Sister's Keeper. I read it over the summer while I was on vacation and I could not put it down! After I read it I told my mom to, and when she finished she was completely surprised with the ending. I don't think the ending was cheap, though. It gave the book an outcome which I enjoy more then having an ending that doesn't clear things up.
    As for the Sarah Dessen book, I have not read that one, but I love all of her books. Maybe when I am finished with Paper Towns I will pick that one up :)

    Yes yes yes! Once I got into it and figured out what was going on, I couldn't stop. I'm over halfway through it at the moment...I wish I had more time to read :P

    It is amazing, I finally got the sequel on Friday but I still was not feeling well so I read the whole thing Saturday and I thought it was just as good as the first. Now I can't wait for the next one.

    I did read We The Living! It was only a month or so after we had finished Anthem. I thought it was pretty good, more of an actual story than Atlas Shrugged or the Fountainhead.

    Hey Mrs.Risell. You read Hunger Games? What did you think of it? It's one of my favorite books.

    Mrs. Risell! I had a Spanish club officer meeting today and it took longer than I expected, and tomorrow I have an NHS candidates' meeting and Academic Challenge. How's Thursday? :/

    wow you've read alot of books! Did you like the Twilight series? I feel like I should read that because everyone talks about how they're so amazing and everything. This is Kaleigh's sister by the way lol

    Hey, I noticed you have read Lolita. I've been thinking about reading it, but I'm sort of afraid. xD What's your opinion on it?

    I doooooooo! Paper Towns is especially good. And I read An Abundance of Katherines last year; it was hilarious. And I still have to read Looking for Alaska... how's that one?

    I really like Sarah Dessen, you should read at least one of her books! I would love to talk about any of them when you're finished.
    By the way, I handed in my Honors essay this morning; I'm crossing my fingers that I'll get a check-plus! Ha ha. I think the Amy Tan story and the essay that accompanied it were a little difficult, but I guess it has to be challenging because it IS an Honors class. My friends and I have talked about it and they all are anxious about getting it back, so we'll see!
    The Sparrow sounds like a good book, I'm not into sci-fi too much, although i do read the Twilight series. I don't know if that is considered sci-fi or just fiction. I'm currently reading Eclipse; I'm about half-way through the book. For some reason (and I'm not sure why) the Twilight books seem to go really slow for me. On the other hand, I could read ANY Ellen Hopkins book in a night. I guess it depends.
    I'm a little weird when it comes to books. I can read two or three at a time and not get completely confused. I've been reading books with more pages lately so I haven't been endulging in more than one. I guess that's a good thing?
    Anyways,
    I hope you have a great weekend!

    I read Speak after my Gifted teacher Mrs. Gerhart reccomended it to me, and I loved it! I don't remember too much about it, but I do remember that it was definately one of the most interesting books I've ever read!
    Hmm... to answer your question on my favorite book, that is a tough one. I read a LOT and I have plenty of favorites, not one in particular. But, I happen to ADORE Sarah Dessen and I have read most of her books.
    If I were to ask you your all-time favorite book it probably would be quite hard as well, but I'm going to ask anyway. What is your favorite book?
    And as for the comment on little kids, I think they can also be very hilarious, at least the kids I know are. I'm the oldest out of the grandchildren in my family, so I have plenty of smaller people running around most of the time. Ha ha (:

    Hi my name is Kayla and I am looking to be in honors English next year. I love to read and I just got the summer reading list yesterday from Mr Sherman; I read the part about this website and I figured since I love reading I might be able to talk to you about some of the books I have read recently!
