Did you ever read the book? You said you were, but I didn't hear anything about it. I'm about to start it with my AP kids & I'd like to be able to add something to the discussion, so I was thinking you could read it & blog about it & then I could add that into the conversation in my class. Like having a 3rd voice in the class: (1)the teacher's voice, (2)someone who has read the book's voice, (3)the students who have only read the Sparknotes'* voice.
*Did you know that these kids don't know what Cliff's Notes are? They know Sparknotes, but have never heard of Cliff's Notes and don't recognize the familiar black & yellow book covers. Crazy. Some marketing guy at Sparknotes should get a bonus.
