This blog is to be dedicated to reading and sharing. Just because school is out for the summer, does not mean you should forget about reading. Here are my top ten picks for right now:
1. Hunger Games Trilogy
2. Freak the Mighty
3. Touching Spirit Bear
4. Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes
5. Whale Talk
6. Looking for Alaska
7. World War Z (An Oral History of the Zombie War)
8. Petey
9. Geography Club
10. Criss Cross (Sharon Draper novel)
If you read a novel, a newspaper article, a magazine article, a blog, etc--share your thoughts, commments and insights here.
It will be interesting to see what everyone enjoys reading! Some of my classic favorites are Lord of the Rings Trilogy and the Hobbit, anything Bronte, and Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. I enjoy many SciFi and Fantasy stories, too! What are some of your fav genres?
ReplyDeleteI have read The Hobbit and enjoyed it. I have never continued with the trilogy however. I am a bit fan of historical fantasy, I guess that is what the genre could be called. One of my favorite authors right now is Ellen Evert Hopman. I just taught a short unit about the Sherlock Holmes stories--and I really enjoyed it. I had never read Holmes tales before. I wanted to interest the group of boys I had and it worked.

ReplyDeletePreston, I know you are trying to be funny. I would appreciate you being sincere about this or I will ask you not to blog with us. You read so much this year--I know you will be able to contribute something worthwhile.
