The real purpose of books is to trap the mind into doing its own thinking.

Christopher Morley

Reading is such a wonderful way to spend one's time.  I love to read books, so I'd thought I would provide a list of books I've enjoyed as well as let you know what I'm reading right now.  Now go to the library and find something to read!

Note: This list is intended for a high school audience (grades 9-12).
