Hey, bloggers! I'm Giselle and I'm in Ms. Elmer's 4th period class. From the people I see on the blog already, I know both of you.  If someone adds on that doesn't know me, here's a little bit about me.  I enjoy writing songs, playing percussion and piano, singing...in general: music. And I also play volleyball and throw discus in track.  I'm willing to admit I'm a big talker, and this is the first time I've blogged, so it should be interesting!  One of my favorite books is called Deep and Dark and Dangerous.  I really like mysteries, and kind of "dark" books like murder investigations and things of that sort.  I'm not a big fantasy or science fiction reader, but I'm open to new things.

I did see Sara's post before this, so I saw what she thought we should do for planning out our time.  Though it is a rather short book, it has some complex reading and takes a little time to get the story going.  I do think we should finish it before the 4 weeks, but we should take a little more time to go through and analyze the story, especially some "tough" spots.  I think over these next couple of weeks, we all can pitch some ideas about what book to possibly read next (like Sara did), and hopefully agree on one! I wanted to read Lord of the Flies, but I don't know how long that would take.  It's a shorter book like Fahrenheit 451, but it is complex reading as well.  But as this blog gets started, we'll be able to talk with each other more and hopefully come to a unanimous decision.

Talk to you guys soon! I think this will be a good book, I've heard a lot of good things about it.
