though i invited u to the group read mentioned above, on second thought both of u are jr. high age and it might have some inappropriate scenes in it...

i don't have any ideas in particular, really...
perhaps it would help if we had a genre in mind for example romance or mystery or even time periods. if we establish that then we could browse LT and see if anything interests us.

okay so here's the thing me and Reggie Lynn were thinking about
read Six weeks(IDK haven't read it but my mom says it's really cool. And she has good taste most of the time.)
Then read Nineteen minutes by Jodi PIcoult
Then read this book tahta she wants to read
then I was thinking we could read a book you wanted to read.

okay I was reading a review on six weeks and it sounds sooooooooooooo depresing. That idea is sooooooo out.
IDK what to read anymore
acctually I have this book from the library cheaked out and I haven't started it yet. It's called the looking glass wars. It's a twist on the book Alice in Wonderland. It acctually reminds me of the wolf's version of the 3 little pigs. because it's supposedly what really happen to Alice (by the way in the book her name is spelled Alyss

Its called Pismo Beach. its about 4 hrs north of my home. Me, my family, and our close friends go there every August for a week and go camping. I love it there just past a hill is the beach. All us kids walk there every day and hangout, or we walk to the little town and get ice cream. Its cool there too,like 70 degrees, which is a change from the 100 degree weather i am currently in. We have campfires and a night its cold enough that you need a jacket and scraf. Also i usually get back to school clothes there and no one back home has anything like it which is cool :)

Jul 28, 2009, 5:43 pm

that sounds SO cool. I've never done any of that before; I want to though. I mean camping, friends, sleeping under the stars, and more? What could be better than that?
So Cool! I hope you have fun on your trip
