My Summer Reading List...

[frogipoi]

I plan to read this summer...
I am going to read Moby Dick, Les Miserables, War and Peace, and Crookedstar's Promise. I am going to 6th grade ready! *gets helmet and pile of books*
Are my first 3 books too extreme ? :D

[fishman12]

Yeah, Crokkedstar's ppromise comes out in a few weeks doesn't it?

[frogipoi]

I also might read some more vintage classics other then War and Peace... and I might add some more warriors books and Life of Pi... Oh and the Secret Zoo! Maybe the Magic Mountain (It is not a childrens book!o.o) and Warrior's Song!
Yes it does... on July 3 or 4? I preordered it so I didn't have to go to the book store :p

[fishman12]

Wow. I would not be reading all those old classics...

I think it's great that you're spending some time reading this summer. I'm a big advocate for reading. :)

My mom has a lot of old classics so I have to read them. I loved Black Beauty. I watched the movie and read the book a million times :p

I tend to read too much.... not a lot of out side air O.o I love going to the pool though. aI finally swam in 12 feet water.... I flailed to the other side :))

Wow..people still do summer reading lists?
I remember doing them 3-4 years back.
Once you get to high school they just want you to read..any time any book. :P

My mom says I need one since I never read for the summer than BAM all school year non stop reading XD

Those first three are a little ambitious back to back. I read everything i can get my hands on and read those 3 at one point or another but I wouldn't want to read them together.

Maybe read something not so heavy in between Les Mis and War & Peace? There are so many great classics out there (like everything Steinbeck ever wrote) so try to mix it up a bit.

The worst thing about War & Peace was trying to keep the names straight. You'll see what I mean LOL.
