Salutations!
My summer reading book is the City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau. It’s a really good book; I’ve read it about a hundred times. The movie’s really good, too. So, I’m re-re-re-re-re-re-re-reading it, because I might as well get a reminder of the plot. Like I’d forget… Anyways, I am at the part where -
SPOILER ALERT!
- Lina and Doon have just found out that the mayor is hogging the supplies. Which is pretty jerk-ish of him.
I really like this book, partly because besides the mayor, there isn’t really a bad guy. Just awesomeness. I love the cover, too. It’s cool how the lightbulb actually looks like it’s glowing. On the back cover there’s a map of the Pipeworks, which is interesting. Also, Ember is an awesome name for a city. ‘Nuff said.
I have a ton of books to read during the next week.
Here’s some of them:
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
Summerhouse Time by Eileen Spinelli
Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
I know there’s more, but they’re not in front of me, so I can’t name them all.
Peace, Love, and Sweet Summer Reads
I love comments :)

City of Ember is an awesome book, totally agree with you on that. Also I thought the Hobbit was good to but a little slow in parts. =] Happy Reading. =]
