Please give the name of your book and your grade. Thank you!~

Answer 7

I'm an adult, but I'm reading "The Golden Compass", and there are two more books in the series.  It's great.

"The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants" is another series that the teens like.  "Twilight" series, and the "Pendragon" series too.  

Answer 8

I'm not reading the books for homework but this summer I read or am reading:

1. Breaking Dawn (one of the worst things I've ever read)

2. Hyperion (I'm about 100 pages in and it's pretty good)

3. Cell (haven't started it yet)

4. Dragon Tears (same as 3)

5. Subtle Knife (decent but I just can't really get into the series)

6. Ender's Game (sweet book. that other person is wrong about it ;D)

7. Ender's Shadow (just as good, if not better, than Ender's Game)

8. The Supernaturalist (awesome.)

9. Thr3e (it's pretty good so far)

That's about all I can think of off the top of my head. Oh, by the way, I'm going to be a senior.

Answer 9
