4 AR Points!
For 4 AR Points, post a comment to this Blog Entry telling about your favorite book or story that you read this year. You must tell me the name of the book and author as well as why you really liked this book. It may be a favorite theme, character, an exciting plot, or whatever. This comment must be a minimum of 8 sentences long. I would suggest typing it in a Word Document then copying and pasting it into a comment because I will not give points to those entries that aren't grammatically correct!
