i was just wondering what everyone else is required to read, and if you'd recommend those books.

i'm currently reading the following for 12th grade AP Lit:
"love in the time of cholera" by garcia-marquez
"the god of small things" by roy
"the poisonwood bible" by kingsolver

anyone read these? comments?

I dont have summer readings. If i did..i wouldnt do it. Summer vacation is suppose to be a vacation and to forget about school.
Oh wait, i do have to read. Im not going to to do it. Gosh. Every teacher told us to relax and enjoy summer, but they gave us books to read...wow...how could we relax when we have homework?
