The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt promises to be a great read. I started it today, but fell asleep. It was a shame because it starts out with a teacher who "hates her student." I think she resents that she's going to lose her planning or else she thinks he's going to be very smart. She keeps giving him hard things to do and looking at him. Still funny!

The reason I think it's going to be so good (other than liking the beginning and the author's style) is because it's a Virginia Young Reader book. They all seem really good this year. I've only read a couple, but since the kids are required to read them, I hear about them all.

Since I'm at Mom's, that's all I'm going to write for now. I'll be back to update when I've read a little more.
