Teen Girls Book Club discussion

So, anyway, does anybody read classic books, To Kill A Mockingbird, Fahrenheit 451 ( I think those are the numbers), Anne of Green Gables?

Awesome, I've read Anne of Green Gables. It is such a good book.

What is your first language?

I’ve never read a classic before.

I tried reading Lord of the Flies but it was incredibly boring. I have heard that it gets really good at the climax but I didn't care enough to wait lol.

I have read Pride and Prejudice, Northanger Abbey, Animal Farm, the Outsiders, the Wave, Swiss Family Robinson, etc.

Favorites: Pride and Prejudice, the Outsiders, the Wave.

Anne of Green Gables was my first ever classic, I think I read it when I was seven. I remember thinking it was amazing, but I don't remember much other than that... I think there was a character called Gilbert? It must've been really good because that was what inspired me to read other classics!

There was a character named Gilbert. Have you seen the Netflix series? It is really good.

Oh yes outsiders is so good, I read it for a class novel study this year. The ending BROKE ME though.

Happy National Book Day everyone

Candy kind of hurts my teeth now :|
Tho tbh I didn't really eat it before much anyway

I don’t really eat candy either but Minnie eggs and Reeses 🤤🤤

Ok, I'm not a candy obsessed child or anything. But, no candy? Like, whatsoever? No chocolate? What about things like cake, brownies, cookies, etc.???

Well I mean I do chocolate, sometimes, but not often. Same with those other things.

@ameliaclaire

I adore your new pfp! The answer to your first question about the classics is yes! I am currently reading to kill a mockingbird in class and am buying my own copy, and am buying Fahrenheit 451 whenever I can next! I want to read the great gatsby, mice and men, let me know if I’ve missed any!

Hiya

Hi. Hi. Hi.

Hey!

Serious question: to mark the page that you've left off on, what do you do? Do you fold the corner of the page or do you use a book mark? Or are you insane and even fold down HALF of the page??
Let me know ;)

I use a book mark (or a receipt, or a gum wrapper, or a clean Kleenex lol)

but I'll fold down the corner in extreme circumstances

I us a bookmark because most of the time when I start a book I’m at home because I don’t like starting them at school.

I don't trust myself with bookmarks... I just memorise the page number and pick up where I left off xD

same, although I normally forget what page I left off on ;( I sometimes fold down the corner of the page but only if it's an old book.

I'm too scatterbrained to remember my own birthday, let alone a page number lol

Random question: Are there any homeschoolers here, or is it just me?

I'm not homeschooled but I'm pretty sure that AmeliaClaire is... but I could just be remembering wrong xD

Six of Crows Duology or The Selection Series? I'm kinda confused to which books I should read next, can u guys help me choose between these two HAHA? Or if u have any more suggestions, I'm open :)

I've already Six of Crows duology and am currently reading The Selection... I think it might be better to read Six of Crows first, because it is a shorter series that is easier to commit to xx

To answer Charlotte’s question, yes, I am a homeschooler! Is anyone else?

I was only planning to read the first three books of the Selection Series since I heard the last two aren't very important to the plot.

Is the Series better than the Six of Crows Duology? ( I haven't read the Grisha Trilogy ) <3

Hmm I'm not sure, I'm only just starting The Selection and I'm planning to read the Grisha trilogy after I've finished the never-ending 'currently reading' list I've commited to xD

Hey guys, you probably all know that it’s pride month since as a group we tried to show our support in a small way by making our books of the month LGBTQ+
I wanted to share something that happened at my school today that is completely disgusting to remind everyone that prejudice against LGBTQ+ is still a daily thing and we need to continue to fight against it and if you see an act of homophobia you should report it.
Yesterday at my school a few kids expressed their pride by drawing it on the sidewalk with chalk. Today a group of homophobic kids went around the school destroying it by smudging it and washing it away with water. Me and a few of my friends saw this and reported it to the office and I think that now they are getting suspended.
This may seem like a small thing but it is still a type of hate crime and is still unacceptable.
I’m grateful that we’ve gathered a group of accepting and loving teens that can relate to one another on more than just books. I know that things like this can make it hard to continue to show your pride but is so important to do it.

That's horrific! I'm glad that we as a group can show our support for the LGBTQ+ community :)

So sad to hear that, I’m equally happy that we have this Book Club, that branches out far beyond books.

It’s sad that I and others have to experience things like this. I don’t get why people can’t grow up.

Exactly!
