  1. 1. siddartha
    2. I chose it because eastern beliefs have always interested me, and in particular I love learning of Gandhi and the Buddha and those who were peaceful. I also follow somewhat of a taoistic mentallity and just overall want to read it. I feel it will be a good book for me based on the fact that its a story of a boy with everything to nothing, everything then Choosing nothing and gaining a wisdom and happiness unlike most. Its appealing to me more then most things. Plus, its out of my usual genre choice which is also interesting to me.

    3. I honestly don't know. Hopefully people I can get along with.

  7. 1. Frankenstein
    2. The themes through the book answer important questions about humanity and what it means to be human. It sounds really interesting and different and I would never read it on my own time.

  11. 1. One flew over the cuckoo's nest
    2. I've heard many great things about this book and have always been interested in reading it. It also seems like a quintessential book to be read at school (like catcher in the rye, Fahrenheit 451, etc...) and I want to be able to understand and speak about an important book like this.

  18. 1. The fault in our stars
    2. I choose this book because I enjoyed Looking for Alaska and this book is written by the same author, John Green. I also like reading books with characters around the same age as me.
