I've never read this book before, but it sounds great! I will be checking this book out :) Thank you!Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02828378728962868575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-28581515960106273142009-10-04T15:10:57.041-04:002009-10-04T15:10:57.041-04:00At least I'm not the only sap that tears up. ...At least I'm not the only sap that tears up.

I would highly suggest trying it sometime. It helps if you're affiliated with something (standing on a street corner reading aloud tends to get the wrong kind of looks, and everyone will assume you're a religious fanatic reading the end of times to the world...). I wish there were BBW and Big Read readathons everywhere, and that people would come by and add their voices. It makes a big statement.Mistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436497955518156688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-12465522371320234592009-09-30T10:40:12.015-04:002009-09-30T10:40:12.015-04:00Wow you have some freaking guts...I don't know...Wow you have some freaking guts...I don't know if I could ever ever do that...but GOOD JOB!!! and I wanna read this book!Jennay and Luke the Puphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14978544891879118727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-83316957911402352512009-09-28T12:21:29.838-04:002009-09-28T12:21:29.838-04:00It's definitely an interesting experience.

Also, you have to keep reading no matter what it says, 'cause the whole point is anti-censorship. To Kill a Mockingbird was interesting to read aloud, because it contains one of the few words I just won't say, but I had to say it.Mistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436497955518156688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-3254499186585162992009-09-28T03:26:34.588-04:002009-09-28T03:26:34.588-04:00That's so gutsy, just sitting in a foyer readi...That's so gutsy, just sitting in a foyer reading aloud while people listen or go at will.
