<p>I was thinking The Book Thief because the movie comes out this month? Or Ender’s Game because the movie cam out today in the US I think. Both are great too.</p>
<p>omg the book thief no i’m gonna cry :(</p>
<p>i’m okay with reading the spectacular now. isn’t that a movie, too?</p>
<p>We can do Ender’s Game next month. Yes, The Spectacular Now is a movie.</p>
<p>Great, sounds like a plan then 
I’ll try to buy and read The Spectacular Now next week and we can start discussing it when most of us have read it.</p>
<p>Has everyone read The Book Thief already? That might be a nice one to talk about in the mean time.</p>
<p>Quidditchcat posted a link to read it online for free.
I’ve read The Book Thief but I didn’t like it…</p>
<p>^I feel like I’ve had this discussion with you before, but remind me how come?</p>
<p>I don’t like reading books I don’t own, I know that sounds weird but I love physical books as well as the contents. It’s pretty cheap on amazon so it should be worth it if it’s as good as you guys say :)</p>
<p>Idk, it just bored me. I own the book and I read it a couple years ago but I got halfway through and I couldn’t read it anymore. But that’s just me.</p>
<p>Oh, haha I understand.</p>
<p>Guess I’ll read the spectacular now over the 4-day weekend :)</p>
<p>I have a four day weekend too! It makes me sooooo happy!</p>
<p>You should try the book thief again, if only because the movie’s going to be out in a few weeks and it looks like it will be excellent.</p>
<p>^How come you get a 4 day weekend?? I have school tomorrow so I get a day and a half weekend :(</p>
<p>Election Day on Tuesday and Teacher Development on Monday :)</p>
<p>Oh, I just have 2 teacher work days…</p>
<p>So lucky!</p>
<p>What are you guys reading at the moment then? I’m in the middle of Among Others by Jo Walton and it’s incredible. Really interesting, rather different and a lovely mix of everyday and scifi/fantasy parts. The main character is such a huge book fan that it’s rather relatable to :)</p>
<p>Wow! Do you also get Veteran’s Day off? (It’s the week after, and that’s when I have a three day break)</p>
<p>I’m not actually reading anything outside of school. (Shhhhhh). I think I will once I finish my common app essay, because that’s my biggest contender for free time right now. I just finished reading Hamlet in my English class today.</p>
<p>I’m not reading anything else. Ain’t nobody got time for that!</p>
<p>@animpaffliction: you didn’t like the book thief?? the one where it’s narrated by “death” about the holocaust?? that’s an amazing book- just sad. like really sad :(</p>
<p>Nope, didn’t like it. I just didn’t get it. I’ve considered having another go at it but idk…</p>
<p>only if you want it to mess up your feelings for about a month idk</p>
<p>I actually really like sad books… Haha, sounded like a really depressing thing to say.</p>
<p>Eh, I’ll read it later…
Tomorrow’s Diwali and I put henna on my hand and I just want to get it off so that I can use my hand again.</p>
