My school appears to be plague-less. *fingers crossed*. Still, I haven't read or caught up with blogs & postings in days. I expected to be further along with Oliver Twist.christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749333368560606659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-54825074004671722112011-02-13T14:14:55.164-05:002011-02-13T14:14:55.164-05:00Oooh!

Reversible covers sound cool!<br /><br />Our school also has the plague. :-(<br /><br />I am finding it hard to get through <i>Oliver Twist.</i> It's not that I dislike it, exactly. I even like it. But... it's so heavy. <i>War and ace</i> seems light in comparison...<br /><br />I (might) unofficially join in for part of your readathon next weekend.*ೃ༄ Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139487177036647728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-2798039059542680662011-02-13T11:52:37.420-05:002011-02-13T11:52:37.420-05:00I have definitely spent more than I should recentl...I have definitely spent more than I should recently. I keep telling myself I'm going to go on a book buying ban, but the truth is I get really stressed when I limit myself and I'm stressed enough as it is between school and work. I had the flu last week, which sucked, but i actually did get quite a bit of reading done while sitting in bed. I'm jealous you have a four day weekend! Not that I particularly need it, but still.Ashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00878749520906342274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-2987168871012223262011-02-13T10:24:07.857-05:002011-02-13T10:24:07.857-05:00And I forgot to say I'm glad your students are...And I forgot to say I'm glad your students are enjoying The Glass Castle! I found it mesmerizing and read most of it in one sitting. In the middle of the night, couldn't sleep and the book was so good I stayed up almost all night reading it.Karen K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13483190930383406559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-47875265236402781052011-02-13T10:23:09.566-05:002011-02-13T10:23:09.566-05:00I know that feeling of coupons burning a hole in y...I know that feeling of coupons burning a hole in your wallet. . . it's tough to resist! I do miss my Dickens so I may break down and get an audio of Oliver Twist for the car, I find that I really enjoy rereads that way. There's no pressure to finish them quickly since I already know the ending! I just wish my library had more Dickens selections on audio since they're all books I've read before and I do want to finish all of Dickens someday. <br /><br />And how nice that you still have the 4-day weekend coming up! They canceled our President's Day holiday in my girls' school district to make up for the recent snow day -- the calendar was pretty tight this year and in South Texas the snow is so freakishly unusual that there's never enough wiggle room so the holiday had to go.Karen K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13483190930383406559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-83317569013012125942011-02-13T09:37:34.756-05:002011-02-13T09:37:34.756-05:00I don't think we've had a full week since ...I don't think we've had a full week since this semester started...definitely a challenge to keep students on task.
