| So, as I went over my class inspection results and tried to think of ways to make the English class more active, I came up with one that I find quite spectacular. We're starting a book club! Complete with reading assignments, discussion topics, and the occasional study question. Amazing, no? Well, before any of that can happen, I need your help. What should be our first book? Suggest here. I'll make a poll later to narrow it down (assuming we get enough suggestions for that) |

However, it was a good idea. I'm sure you'll find something. You could always try to find stuff on google, for example. |
Please excuse me, I edited your post within my own to fix a few glaring mechanical, grammatical, usage, and spelling errors.
YES. YES THERE EFFING IS.
OF COURSE, If you look a little more closely at the book club, you'll see that it a) is unorganized b) is dead c) was canceled halfway through page two d) is run by someone who hasn't even been ON since November and e) never actually got started.
SO how about instead of being critical, you do something productive and suggest a book?! |

| I suggest the book Identical by Ellen Hopkins. The way it readis is different, its like poems but not..I\'m not sure how to explain it. But its a very powreful story I think. Its one of the only books thats made me want to be physically ill and cry at the same time. Lol its a good thing though, I think. Also: Chocolat byJoanne Harris The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison A Wolf at the Table by Augusten Burroughs

| WOOO for suggestions! 1) The Northern Lights (also known as The Golden Compass in the U S of A), The Subtle knife and last but not least The Amber Spyglass. All can be broken down into 3 catergories, one for each book! 2) The Stuff of Nightmare by Malory Blackman - Such an amazing book, it deleves deep into the exsistance of dreams and how they work. 3)Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman including Knife's edge, and Check mate, and Double Cross to end the series. 4) The Gemma Doyle Series by Libba Bray- ahaha Twirly you made me fall in love with those books lol 5) The Mortal Insturments Series. OF COURSE. To break it down? - City of Bones - City of Ashes - City of Glass 6) To Kill A Mocking Bird 7) It's kind of a play but...An Inspector Calls (to be warned this list could go on forever)  Actualy, this list stops here, my mind has gone completely blank. Hope that was sufficient Twirly!

Suggestions:
The Gemma Doyle series, of course.
The Mortal Instruments series.
Elsewhere (Zevin, Gabrielle.)
All We Know Of Heaven (Mitchard, Jacquelyn.)

I don't know what's wrong with you today but whatever it is it's not my fault so stop being rude like that!
And oh please excuse a foreigner for not writing perfectly in English Twirls!
Also it's not my job to give you ideas, the one you used already existed and i was just letting you know!_________________ Member of the Anti-Liars club! Betrayers don't need memorials!I want to be alive! |
