Currently Reading...

I'm so excited for it haha!

I love the Great Gatsby!! I read it last year for an english class focusing on the 1920's. It's fantastic. There's a good, old movie of it, too! And there's lots of cool trivia and fun facts about it.

=D
I just read like, the first chapter and theres lots of big words and stuff which is fun because I know what they mean, but I actually have to think about what I'm reading. does that make sense? like, because the language is so advanced it's actually a little challenging because its not as straight-forward

I should stop saying "like" cos it makes me sound dumb

I adore the Great Gatsby.. We read it back in...6th or 7th grade? I've read it at least twice a year since, and need to get a new copy. Mine's falling apart.

you read it in grade 6/7??? wtf!!!
I guess it must be the quebec english program or something but i know way too many kids in my regular grade 10 english class who would need a dictionary with them while reading only one page!

6/7 i agree
the hell
we;re just reading it this year
gr 12

We had a very ambitious literature teacher, but I adored her. No one else challenged us quite like her, and she'd help us through the rough patches.

shit.

damnn

I just started The First Assitant by Clare Naylor and Mimi Hare. I didn't read the precursor, but it's still hilarious.
