It’s back!
Sorry for the delay in getting a post up this week, but we had an interesting Monday here at LeGrande, didn’t we? First the network was down and then the water turned against us! Maybe today will be calmer…
So anyway, I’ll get right to it. This week, I want to know something about not what you DID read, but about what you WANTED to read. I want to hear about the book that somehow might have slipped through your fingers!
And so, a THREE-PART prompt!
- What book from your original list of “things on the Project List that looked interesting” did you NOT get to read? If there is more than one, feel free to share them all!
- Why did you originally want to read that book?
- Will you read it in the future (even without being assigned to do so)? Why or why not?
Pretty simple stuff, I think. I know that my personal list of “things I really want to read soon-ish” just grows and grows. I tend to have stacks and stacks of books around me all the time and it always seems like it gets bigger rather than smaller even though I read A LOT!
Personally, I just bought a book called Rampant by Diana Peterfreund that I’m dying to start. Also, I’ve got Bunnicula Meets Edgar Allan Crow by James Howe, Teach with Your Strengths: How Great Teachers Inspire Their Students by Rosanne Liesveld, and the first Vampire Diaries volume by L. J. Smith! You can see how things pile up for me!
So, tell me about your future reading plans. It might help me get the library prepared!

I wanted to read Percy Jackson and the Olympians: the Lightning Thief. The reason I wanted to read this book was because I got it for free at Barnes & Noble for doing the summer reading program. I will read this book in the future for I am reading it now.
