The Reading Lunch

I thought the reading lunch was so much fun this year.  I think everyone enjoyed it, and I'm so glad that Dr. D planned it for all of us.  I really like talking about books that I love with other people who feel the same way as I do, and that is exactly what you do at the reading lunch.  I participated both times at the reading lunch this year.  The first time, I lead a discussion for the book Someone Like You.  This discussion was okay, but most people at my table hadn't read the book before which made it kind of hard to discuss our questions.  The second time, I participated in a discussion for The Hunger Games.  This discussion was great because all of the people had read the book and seen the movie, so we compared and contrasted which was cool.  I really enjoyed talking about it to them because most of my friends have only seen the movie and think its amazing, but the movie is missing so much!  I think that you need to have read the book to participate in the discussion because it's a lot more fun that way, and then everyone at the table can participate in the discussion.  I hope that next year we will be able to continue the reading lunch, but have it more than twice a year!
