Well, I just finished 1984 by George Orwell.
Quite a fascinating novel. The ending is bleak, of course...

Yep. Shelby Foote's version of the Civil War tends to be a little different than James McPherson's. Let me know if you want any suggestions for books. I was a History major and it is sort my semi-profession as well.
Sounds good...I'll have to give it a try.
Good book, and GREAT classes!
AP US is an amazing course.
Full year for both, with a lot of writing. The English class parallels the History class, so right now he's reading The Scarlet Letter in one, and essays by the founding fathers in the other. He opted to drop Latin, as that would have been a third AP course, along with two honors math & science courses. So he's taking Spanish 1 with all of the 8th graders. :lol:

They added that option after I took the course and it looked so fascinating.
The Scarlet Letter is horrid, though.:lookaroun I think that is the only book that I had to buy and USE the cliff notes for.:dazzle:
And I did the same thing for Spanish!:lol:....Ended up working well. They give a smaller workload for a "younger" class. It was much easier to balance my AP classes that way.

I've recently finished all of the Gregory Maguire books. He's the guy who wrote Wicked and he's great if you want a different take on all of the fairy tales! Mirror Mirror is the flip side of Snow White and Confessions of an Ugle Stepsister is Cinderella! Really makes me look at the movies in a whole different light!
Now waiting not so patiently to see if he does another...

So just for fun, I decided to go to the forums for The Daily Show and found that they have a "Guest Suggestions" section. I ended up suggesting the author of the book I just finished. She saw the link I posted on Facebook and has said she would love to do it. Anyone that wants to help try to get her on the show, please go to the forums and post that you would like to see her on: http://forum.thedailyshow.com/tds/board/message?board.id=guest-suggestions&thread.id=3086
As for what I'm reading now, I haven't decided what I want to read next yet. I have a bunch of books here that I haven't finished, but then there are a bunch that are in stores that I want to read as well...
