Light Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Why do schools pick the most boring books? I am currently reading "Fread the Mighty", which is extremely boring. Discuss boring books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hezky Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I have also paid 250 dollars for my school books per semester. Unfortunately, I don't really like to read some of the book it because I don't want the concept. So, I get bored. _________________orange county criminal attorney | SEO Services Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikaru-chan Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Freak the Mighty was a great 6th grade book. But currently, now in 8th grade, we don't get assigned books. We get assigned the genre and then have to write a book report and such. My English teacher is also beyond great and knows books exceedingly well; you name it, she read it. So she has a great eye in picking out books for us anyways. In class, we've read many Edgar Allan Poe and Hawthorne stories, all which I love. Reading is wonderful :] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindscatter Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 I have to pay 500+ dollars for my school books' date=' Per Semester.[/quote'] I have to pay more. But if you're speaking about literature our teachers put us to read, it might sound awkward, but my English Teacher actually advised us to read...Douglas Adams! OMG...

That was the first book that made me cry. I guess it seemed boring during the beginning of the story. I have to pay 500+ dollars for my school books' date=' Per Semester.[/quote'] Really? My school just holds a book sale. Anyways, my teachers have yet to make my class read a book that's considered boring. My Grade 4 and 5 teacher chose some great books like Holes.
