    I read the messager one time it was good. But when I try to read it again...it's just not the same, because your like "I know the f'in ending." And qwerty isn't that good anymore.

    The Giver wasn't that bad...
    but our teacher fricken gave away the whole "color" thing...


    But the worst so far is my current one:
    Into Thin Air by Jon Kraukken or something like that.

    "To Kill a Mockingbird" was torture until that one girl got "raped." It was so boring, I wanted to kill it. Until the trial that is.

    Well, In sixth grade I had to read Storm Boy by Colin Thiele. That was boring! Then, I had to read King of Shadows! It was about Shakespeare! I'm sorry, but he puts me to sleep.

    Currently, the Shade Of Swords. It's about Islam and how Bush is an idiot. I hate it in the beggining only because it gives you a history on Islam.

    I just finished a pretty bad one. It was 'Warriors Don't Cry' by Melba Pattillo Beals. It wasn't a bad book, just ridiculously in your face. Melba was one of the Little Rock Nine. It's her autobiography of the 1957 integration in Little Rock. And seriously, I was scared half to death reading it, just because it's hard to fathom something like that.

    I hated the book,"The Chosen" and "Absolute Power." They were both just unbearable. (Cliff Notes)

    DEFINETLY the Life of Pi. This was such a terrible book, I took a bad grade rather then reading the rest of it. If you want to fall asleep at night, read this book, it'll do it instantly

    Probably... Letters from Rifka from Karen Hesse. I usually don't have reading assignments and when I do, I find really good books. But this book was like illness, illness, no passage, evil natzi. It gets... Repetitive. ThoughI would recomend it to people who can read historical fictions. xD

    A Day No Pigs Would Die, I'll admit, I did cry at the end, but that book was just so boring.
