I chose to read the book "Rocket Boys" by Homer H. Hickam, Jr. I chose this book because I have seen the movie once before and I really enjoyed it. Also, the plot is appealing to a high school guy, like me, which is always a plus. I am looking forward to seeing how the book and movie compare considering corresponding movies often have very large differences from the books. Hope everybody has a great rest of the summer. Happy reading!

Megan White- I heard that book was good, and remember watching the movie too, but the movie seems like it would be really similar to the book. Have you come accross any diffeences so far?

Shelby Searcy- Loved the movie! This book was my second choice if I couldnt find a copy of my first choice. Often in the case, the book is far more detailed than the movie so the book is probably even better than the movie! Let me know nick! I look forward to hopefully seeing you in class! :)
