    I'm not a big reader myself, I find it boring. The books I've read is because I've been forced to. But some of the books I've read are some Goosbumps books, they are good. Also, a book called the Adventure of Tom Sawyer. I don't really like books; I had to read a book called 'A Tale of Two Cities'and I didn't even read the first paragraph and I returned the book. I'm sure that some of you like to read. Tell us what books you have read and yourfavorite.

    Now we practically have a topic for every known possible subject.


    I dunno, I just like to read whatever the hell (excuse my french, lol) I think is interesting. I don't really have a specific type of book. Well, I don't really like depressing books. I read halfway through The Giver and then I stopped. I didn't like that book very much.

    I read The Giver, it was probably the best book we've read in school. We have all this boring stuff like To Kill A Mockingbird, Animal Farm (which wasn't too bad), The Pearl, Jacob Have I Loved, etc.

    I was a huge Hardy Boys fan.

    It's more of an emotional kind of book. The movie made me cry.

    Has anybody ever read the Left Behind series? Excellent series. It follows a group of people left behind after the Rapture (read the bible, and you will know what that is). I highly recommend them.
