Default Re: Books: What are you reading tonight?

I finished Freedom Writers Diary finally. I feel a little weird saying this, but for the casual reader, I would honestly say "just see the movie." I think that the movie got a lot of the essence of the book. Obviously the book is incredibly invaluable because you get the students' writing firsthand, but the movie is worth seeing if you can only do one and have a couple hours.

I'm starting Midsummer Night's Dream for class. I've read it a couple times before, but it's nice to get going into Shakespeare again.


govman,

What makes WWZ so good? I have it on my list of things to read, love zombie flicks, and am in the Halloween scare mood. Can you give me a few lines on why I should bump it up my list of books to read?
