Summer Reading--What MUS Boys Picked

MUS has a good summer reading program, but for people who really like to read, the list is way too short.  Here are some voluntary book choices selected by our book clubs for some additional good reading:

For my club, which was LS but is now rising 8th and 9th graders ("Guys Read"):  Read The Door Within by Wayne Thomas Batson; also finish the Lord of the Rings trilogy if you haven't already done so.  There will be a new movie version of The Hobbit in the next couple of years, and we want to be ready. 

Mrs. Crosby's club ("The Finer Things"):  Going Bovine by Libba Bray and The Diving Bell and the Butterfly by Jean-Dominique Bauby.  Several people are already looking forward to being in this group, which is usually made up of juniors and seniors.

Mr. Reese has agreed to sponsor a new Harry Potter book club in the fall, so look over those books again during the summer if you'd like to participate.

I'll try to put out a list of suggested summer reading before the end of school.  If you want to recommend a book that we never read this year, send it to me and I'll include it.  And if you still want to go to a movie, we'll meet and decide next week.
