Let me tell you about it...

I just finished reading Speak and I must admit...I liked it the best so far. I don't really know why.

I guess it is because I really don't read books like it. I mean, it was a very good book, well-written...humorous and serious, but, and I'm not being a sexist pig...It was a girl-oriented book...Not anything on the level of Secret Life of Bees

I'm glad to hear October Sky is worth the read.
Thanks.

(Off to read it.)

never read the book, but October Sky, the movie.. was really great in my opinion.

I've never seen the movie...heard things about it, but have never seen it.

I do know that the movie was called October Sky and is based on the book Rocket Boys. Which, when you break down and rearrange the letters, spells October Sky...they renamed the book to October Sky to boost sales I think.

See, you learn something new every day.
