<p>^
I know my friends in AP Bio this year had to read the Hot Zone too, and I’ve heard it’s a good book, along with the other two they have to read (‘Demon in the Freezer’, and ‘When a Gene Makes You Smell Like a Fish’).</p>

<p>I’m starting on these 3 during the summer too.</p>

102

<p>Only Crime and Punishment for AP Lit. I’m going to get ahead of the game and read How to Read Literature Like a Professor since I know it’s going to be assigned eventually anyway.</p>

<p>I’m SO glad my school isn’t the type to assign required summer homework.</p>

107

<p>I get to read the Illiad,
which I don’t really have a problem with.
I’ve been meaning to read it.</p>
