Finished up Stealing Heaven this weekend (another book finished on the dock). The book is about a girl and her mom who move from place to place stealing--it's their occupation. The main character was believable enough...and I felt like I needed to know what would happen to her. However, I felt like I could predict the ending.... The foreshadowing was just a little obvious.
I've read a lot this summer, thanks mostly to this blog. It's kept me focused and looking forward to the next novel. I hope it helped you too. Summer reading assignments are due in one week. Where are you on that? Make sure you are ready on the first day!
I pick up Pretties this week at the library. Can't wait to read book 2 of the Uglies series. All upcoming 8th graders should try to read Uglies--it will give you some background/insight when it comes time to read The Giver in class.
I head to my classroom tomorrow. I'll be there 1-3:30. Join me if you'd like to:)
