Oh god. We had to study The Hatchet in year seven english. I was practically shoving the pencil down my throat with boredom.

Um...well when I was in like yr 1 there were books like Possum Magic, The Faraway Tree (or something like that), picture books and stuff like that.

Since starting high school
yr 7 -
harry potter
yr 8 -
hatchet (even though I absolutely hated it),
the hobbit (hated that too), T
he Great Gatenby by John Marsden
yr 9 -
All of the Tomorrow Series by John Marsden,
Looking for Alibrandi + Saving Francesca both by Melina Marchetta.
1984 by Orwell,
To Kill A Mockingbird
The Story of Tom Brennan - JC Burke
Its Not All About You Calma! - Barry Johnsberg (or someone like that...)

And thats about it, the books I've listed are the ones that've stood out from that year from either being amazing or horrible. Most of the for being amazing all though the hatchet and the hobbit were horrible. I think if I had to choose a book that defined my junior years of high school I'd say Looking for Alibrandi. I love that book, its awesome.
