Comment

I finished reading "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" this afternoon. Probably not supposed to have read the whole thing at once, but I couldn't help myself. It was so dang entertaining and heartbreaking and I wanted to feel like I had already finished a project before the semester really got started.

So, will we have chapter discussion questions posted here every week? Let me at 'em! I'm ready! The sooner the better.

Did I mention I'm student teaching this semester - and worried that I'll get swamped by mid-semester?

I'll save my comments about the book for a little while longer, in case there are chapter-based discussion questions coming, and so I don't risk ruining such a great book for those who haven't read it yet.
