I'm also in an 'I can't wait till I finish & I can't wait to talk to all of you' space!

 

Partly because of some stuff in my own life that is relevant to the early part of the book... and probably to the whole thing.  I can't wait to compare notes!!!!!!!!   And I have some stuff to share with all of you... and you may have some for me.  :bounce:

 

I also suspect that, uh, regarding the sensitive material.... nothing I've seen so far would be a surprise to any of the YAs I know... especially any who attend regular school vis-a-vis being homeschooled.  I doubt this would break new ground for most 21st century kids.... not sure, but my suspicion...  

 

From what my life experience has been, kids are kids and will share what they have learned... so most of this will not give any new info to a typical YA.... (but I haven't gotten to the scene yet, so you never know!)

Wah! I'm hoping I will have the time to read the book this week! I'm rather busy at the moment though! If you guys start a discussion I might just have to go read the book and then jump into the discussion when I finish!

IceNine suggested we start around the 20th, which will let everyone get it and get it read.

 

YOU don't have an excuse to slight your homework, Chryso.  ;)

 

 

Happy reading, everyone!!!!

So....it arrived the day before yesterday and I finished it in a coffee shop with tears rolling down my face yesterday afternoon.

 

I have to thank peeps because I would never of read it without it being mentioned here and I can't wait for the discussion.

 

(when do we start that?)

I still don't have my copy yet. I think the person that got it is one of those awful human beings who keeps it for the full two weeks, not taking into account that other people might want to read it, too.

I need to borrow it from a friend who loaned her book to another friend so hopefully the other friend returns it (she is a fast read at least.)

I've now got my copy!

The library had a crazy long waiting list so I thought I wouldn't be able to take part...but my sister had an Amazon mix-up when she ordered her copy and ended up with two. I managed to find the spare one so I'll start reading soon when I'm done with my current book. :)

Seriously? Same here. SOMEONE (I don't know who) has had that book out of the school library for a few weeks. I might have to get a ride across town to go to the public library this weekend.
