Augie’s comments from the Books That Make a Statement group.

I guess so.

I did!
However, I honestly have to say that I set my expectations a little to high for that book.

Have any of you ever read "Diamond Willow"? It is a "book in verse" and written in a very different, but spectacular way. Each page consists of a verse written in the form of a diamond with bold words stating the plot of the verse or asking a question. It tells the story of a girl named "Diamond Willow". I don't want to ruin it for others, but if you have read it please tell me!

What do you think about books in verse? What books in verse did you like? I thought Glimpse was an amazing book.

I keep hearing about that book, can you summarize it for me? Do you think it made a "strong statement"?

I think that social issues books such as runaway,make strong statements. I love books that teach lessons, especially in the social issues, realistic fiction, historical fiction, and sci-fi. What books do you like?
