Hey Bookies, what shall we read next?

We finished The Book Thief, and we are ready to move on to our next book!  What are we in the mood for?  Here are some of the titles I threw out there when you guys CHOSE The Book Thief (note the emphasis-- I'm still pretty disappointed that so many of you didn't stick it out after you voted!):


Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie by Jason Sonnenblick
Code Talker by Joseph Bruchac
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld
Schooled (or really any title by Gordon Korman!)
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

Those are all linked to Amazon so you can look at the summaries and reviews to see what you think.  Anyone have any other suggestions?  Let's try to find a title that no one has read yet.  If there's something you've been meaning to read but haven't gotten around to yet, post it!  Once you guys have posted responses here, I'll know we're ready to meet and discuss.

Eon or gregor the overlander seems pretty good or I'm going with to kill a mocking bird.

Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie seems like a good choice, though it may be a heavy book, esp. after The Book Thief.

To kill a mocking Bird

Let's save To Kill a Mockingbird for later. It's my favorite book of all time, but it's not an easy read. I like to do it last, and then we watch the movie. :)

The three we'll vote on today (unless I get suddenly inspired with another title) will be:
1. Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie
2. Gregor the Overlander
3. Schooled

We'll discuss them all today and then take a vote! If you need a pass to get to the front of the lunch line, see me ASAP and I'll write one for you.
