Book Log and Wiki
Checklist
Reading Log for 25 books (to paste into your blog in at the end of the
term)
- Instructions:
List the titles and authors you read under each Genre, and use checklist
below for Wiki posts. Then, highlight this material and paste it into a
final blog post. I have already included (in the 25) the ones we read for
discussion. Feel free to read more in each genre as you make time. Failure
to read and list at least 25 books will results in grade being lowered one
letter.
