To Kill a Mockingbird I actually enjoyed... As 1984.

In high school I remember freshman year was mostly Shakespeare, Lord of the Flies, Hard Times by Dickens (very depressing), Arabian Nights and Days off the top of my head. I know there was more though...

I mean I liked the Court stuff from Mockingbird, but it was a rag in Part 1 till about Miss Maude's Fire. We have just started Shakespeare, and we stated Edgar Allen Poe, but then testing happened. So now Edgar Allen Poe will be way we celebrate the funnest time of the of the year

If we're being honest, Slytherin Harry actually would have been an interesting choice. Add the baggage of being in the 'evil' house to Harry's laundry list of problems but he could keep an eye on Draco and still been friends with Ron and Hermione.

Parseltongue too

Ah nice! which Shakespeare are you doing?

Then sophomore year was Billy Budd, Great Gatsby, The Sun Also Rises, The Scarlet Letter, Arctic Dreams, a great depression book which I forget the name to..

So far all I know of Sophomore year is that they are also reading 1984, and over the summer I get to read The Outliers.

I kind of want to read Gatsby, but I need to finish Wicked and move past 80 Days on my Verne list

The Grapes of Wrath...that was the great depression book...

And Gatsby is a good read, very short compared to other novels.

Ah we did Julius Caesar, The Tempest, and Macbeth...never did Romeo & Juliet.

I think I liked Caesar the best out of the bunch. Sparknotes helps with the shakespearean translations so everything makes sense.

You forgot a couple of things.
•The Pigfarts Commuter train's class and origins is a Great Eastern Railway 5900 class built in Brighton Works in 1870 and departs regularly from St. Pancras station Platform 6 1/5 to Frogspee village
•Harry Potter's father and mothers' names are Vernin and Petunia
•Colin Creevy is the seeker of Slytherin Ruintech team
•Minerva Mcgonagall is the school's Care Of Carebears and other Magical Creatures class
•Rubeus Hagrid is the name of the school's caretaker and has a pet cat named Buckbeak
•And the seventh book of the series is Harry Potter and The Hairy Otter

How could we forget!

You forgot the most imortant thing which is my favorite scene from the Harry Potter films which is where Neville Skywalker blows up the Avada Kedavra Star.

Makes sense - ours were indifferent because the quiz/test questions would never come from sparknotes anyway so it forced you to read the books.

I still need to read Quiditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts. Am I missing something else? (I've read Tales of Beedle the Bard)

Quidditch through the ages? Never mind I see you listed it

Hamlet is where it's at, then you read Rosencratz and guildenstern are dead.

So I realized this weekend when I was organizing my bookshelf, that I have enough books to constitute a Disney section
