At my old Catholic school, the first grade class took turns individually reading the stations of the cross in front of the whole school during mass. I remember reading both the fifth and sixth stations. -
I remember every time my class was taken to the library, I'd always pick out a Magic Tree House book and either read most of it or finish it that same day. -
At a book fair, I picked up a book titled "Smile," and after flipping through the pages, I realized I was hooked and wanted to buy the book. By the end of the school year I had read multiple books from the same author. -
I remember my teacher let the class pick books to keep as our independent reading books. I picked an "A Series of Unfortunate Events" book since I found them interesting after listening to my teacher read one out loud to the class. That whole school year I read some of the book series. -
I remember really liking the movie series Harry Potter. I decided to spend almost this whole school year reading some of the book series during independent reading time. -
I remember over the summer and during this school year I read the book "Everything, Everything" by Nicola Yoon. I was completely obsessed with this book and read it multiple times throughout my seventh grade year and used it as my independent reading book the following school year. -
This school year I was still obsessed with Nicola Yoon's writing. But I remember reading "Everything, Everything" eventually got boring, so I switched to another one of her books, "The Sun is Also a Star." I also loved this book. -
During this school year, I read many books for my English class, one of my favorites I read was "The Catcher in the Rye." It was an easy read and I remember taking my time to actually focus on the themes, topics, and characters introduced.
