I remember reading Jacquline Wilson books in Primary school of my own accord and being read Mr Majeika stories by the teacher. My dad also used to read my Roald Dahl books and do loads of different voices for different characters. My favourite was George's Marvellous Medicine. :h:

In secondary I adored reading The Ruby In The Smoke. I have very fond memories of reading it at my Dad's house - getting to snuggle up in his HUGE comfy bed whilst he took the sofa and reading for hours into the early morning cos he couldn't tell when the light was on from downstairs! That habit still hasn't died... :colondollar:

"Guys like us who work on ranches are the loneliest guys in the world" (i hope you said that in an american accent :biggrin:)


I can still quote the book off the top of my head!
"I could get you strung up on a tree so easy it ain't even funny"

Why has no one said To Kill a Mockingbird yet? Is that too cliche? :colondollar:

Twas my favourite book by a mile :yep: Though we did read lots of interesting stuff at GCSE and AS/A2 :yep:
Where's Wally?
Either An Inspector Calls or To Kill A Mockingbird in secondary school.

In primary, hmm not sure

I tutored a GCSE student in the book and didn't have time to reread it before our first session, but I was surprised by how much I remembered despite not having read it for over a year. Eventually I reread it, and got so much more out of it by reading it again, I definitely recommend it :smile:
