  1. I have begun reading "Pandemonium" by Lauren Oliver. I read the first book in this series, "Delirium," this summer and couldn’t put it down. Lauren Oliver is such an amazing author and creates characters that are so life-like and interesting. I HAVE to read this book in order to find out what happens to Lena in the “Wilds” and what happens to Hanna in the other side of the fence.

  2. The Sallie House Haunting by Debra Pickman.

    I decided to read this book because it's a true story and I like reading and hearing ghost stories, so I think I'll enjoy it. I am reading it this first semester because it's the first book I got interested in.

    1. Remember to punctuate the title correctly. Since we don't have the power of underlining here, the book would need quotation marks.

  3. The first book that I decided to read is called 'Confession Of A Deathmaiden' written by Chip st. Clair. I decided to read this book for my first choice because its something different. Good way to start off the new year, its about a lady that has became a "Death Maiden" which means she goes around and helps people die. Not as harsh as it sounds, she only helps the ones that she can see is about to pass. This book seems good to read because the author has written a book that I can connect too.

  4. The first book that I have decided to read is called 13 Reasons Why. I chosse this because of the situations in it. There is a young girl named Hannah Baker who is the main character but she has also commited suiside. About a year ago I had a friend who did the same thing. Id love to read this book to see how much more i can learn about the reasons why people do these kind of things.

  5. The book that I decided to read first is Dear Bully, by: Megan Kelley Hall and Carrie Jones. I wanted to read this book because we have been discussing bullying these past couple of days in class. Also, I like reading books about people having problems at home, school, and having emotional problems.

  8. The 6th Grade Nickname Game by Gordon Korman,

    When I first saw this book, it caught my attention right off the bat. I have several nicknames so I thought this book would be a good book. Several of the nicknames on the very front of the book were quite hilarious,so I just found the book very interesting.
