Reading Log discussion question # 3

Welcome back students. Sorry for the delay, but all technical issues have been handled!

Here is your question for the week of April 11-15th: What is the most memorable book you have read since Christmas break? If it is memorable, you'll want to tinclude two examples from the text and give me detailed descriptions of your feelings and thoughts.

example: Since the Christmas break, the most memorable book I have read is "The Book of Basketball" by Bill Simmons. It is a non-fiction book written about the greatest NBA players and how they measure up against one another. The author uses opinions from many sources, as well as statistics to back up his arguments about who the best players of all-time are. The book is memorable because I love the style in which the author writes (very funny guy), and even when I disagree with some of his picks about who the greatest players of all time are, I still like the arguments he makes for each one of them. It is a great source of information for any basketball fan, and I know I can always go back and read parts of it again just for a good laugh or some information.
