AP TEST DAY!!!!!  I hope that you all feel great after showing the world what you have learned and how hard you have worked!


Remember to stop by my room (or Ms. Price or Ms. Hendricks) to pick up your novel.

Also, I added Go Tell It on the Mountain by James Baldwin to the list!  This is what Amazon said about it:  "With lyrical precision, psychological directness, resonating symbolic power, and a rage that is at once unrelenting and compassionate, Baldwin chronicles a fourteen-year-old boy's discovery of the terms of his identity as the stepson of the minister of a storefront Pentecostal church in Harlem one Saturday in March of 1935. Baldwin's rendering of his protagonist's spiritual, sexual, and moral struggle of self-invention opened new possibilities in the American language and in the way Americans understand themselves."




You of course could still read Their Eyes Were Watching God, The Great Gatsby, or The Things They Carried.
