Summer reading

[nintendofan85]

So, for those of you still in school, what are you reading for summer reading?
Right now, I'm reading The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I'm also going to read One Writer's Beginnings by Eudora Welty and The Crucible by Arthur Miller. All these books for AP Language and Composition, which I'll be taking once I start my junior year next month.

Gatsby and The Crucible are both terrific reads, I had to read them for AP Lang as well.

Even though I'm starting college next month, I still have a book I have to read before classes start. The Frontier in American History by Frederick Jackson Turner. Kill me.

Yeah, I've read two chapters of The Great Gatsby, yet I like it already.

I'm on the other end of the spectrum doing summer writing instead. But I really miss summer reading. I remember in elementary school we had a summer reading program and it was super fun, they made it competitive and at the end of the next year you could get a few books depending on how many you read like the year prior or something and I remember they had these tables categorized by "reading level" for each grade and I'd do like two tables higher and get the chapter books so I could get more points.

I never heard such evil words during the wonderful time period people call...Summer[s/]

During the summer, I like to read such exquisite novels like H.G. Wells War Of The Worlds and Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer. Although I have read them god-knows-how-many times, they're still quite entertaining works of literature.

I have to read The Chosen by Chaim Potok for my AP reading class next year. It's pretty decent in my opinion, even though it's not something I would read by my own free will. The only problem is I have to write an essay about it before school starts, which is in about a month, and I really don't want to.

I had to read that before I started my English class freshman year.

Well, i'm not. But one of my NL friends are. And he wants his Wii U back, and the only way to do that is if he finishes his summer reading. We're supposed to play MK8 together. I hope he finishes it soon.

i have to read something called "summer of my german soldier" for summer reading or they might kick me out of ap eighth grade language arts, lmao. probably going to procrastinate by reading sherlock instead and then read the book in august

I'm currently reading Battle Royale by Koushun Takami.

I'm hoping over the summer to also read a book I have about the myths and legends of fairies, a graphic novel called "Fun Home" that apparently was recently turned into a musical, and a book on the poems of Sappho.
