I can't get over how bad <i>The Lost World</i> is. We're supposed to write an essay on it and I'm thinking, uh, I'm on chapter two and I can't think at all when I read this book . . . how am I supposed to talk about techniques and quote passages when I don't get a thing the guys on about.
Seriously. THE WORST BOOK I've ever read. Don't read it, at all costs!!!

This year we've read The Pigman and The Outsiders. I really like The Outsiders and The Pigman was okay. I really liked the ending...some of the themes and stuff we had to write about really made you think. I think we're going to start That Was Then, This Is Now soon.
We don't have much time before school is over though.
