Hello! Nice to be back on DOGO after a pretty long absence :( I have only 2 days of school left! Yay summer! What have you guys been reading recently? I have been fascinated by John Adams (author: David McCullough)! When you read this book, you are in the shoes of Adams. I realized that some figures are not as revolutionary as they seem! Adams has a very humane aspect and it's interesting how he always observes. I herbly proclaim John Adams as one of the masterminds of the world. His greatest works and expressions, in my opinion, lie in his letters. Please reply on what books you recommend over the summer!

Good to hear from you again!! :) I've read the Matched series and I am in the middle of Divergent, my 4th time reading it, but this time I own the other books in the series so I get to read those too!!! You should read or re-read my always favorites that I recommend to everyone-- Divergent, Hunger Games, KotLC, the Penderwicks, and of course Harry Potter. My fav series by far!!!
