Hey YAs~
The November Teen Book Club recap is a little late this time, cause well we were a little late. I got sick and had to push the meeting back until Dec. 8th. But we did it and here we go!
For Novemeber we read Feed by M. T. Anderson.
The questions we discussed were:
1. What did you think? Did you like it?
2. Would you want to have The Feed installed in your body? Why or why not? What are the benefits and drawbacks?
3. Do you think that The Feed is something that might actually happen in the future?
4. What did you think of Violet and her actions? What did you think of Titus?
Our overall ratings:
Clare - Did not finish - "Didn't like the writing or the characters. Didn't think that the author had a validated point of view."
Melanie - 5/10 - "Understood the point he was trying to get across but it didn't show what needs to be fixed."
Catherine - 6/10 - "It was stimulating, but didn't like the author's point of view."
We also voted on the next 4 months worth of books. Here are the decisions:
January (audiobook) - Life as We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer
February (being made into a movie) - Delirium by Lauren Oliver
March (disaster/disease/virus) - Trapped by Michael Northrup
April (mythology) - Nobody's Princessby Esther Friesner
for the month of December we are reading:
Meeting for discussion and snack will be on Tuesday, December 18th 6:30-7:30. It's a week early because Christmas falls on a Tuesday this year. We will also be discussing all the books we read in 2012 and voting on our favorites.
