any SAT books ("Tooth and Nail" if you like mystery.) . they have big SAT words included in the story and a glossary in the back. its a lot better than just trying to memorize silly words you'll never use.\n:-)

Okay, not the "comic book" version, but a good, and super quick to read plot outline and character summary:\nhttp://www.sparknotes.com/lit/greatex/\n\nGood luck!

Try reading the "Series of Unfortunate Events" by Lemony Snickett....they're great and will keep your imagination running while we all wait!

OK, I didn't even read your question 'cause it was just too long. \nI would recommend anything by Nicholas Sparks. He's a great author; a very vivid writer. You really get into the characters and into the story,\nHave fun!

My favorite~Half Magic by Edgar Eager~\nThree kids find a magic coin during their summer vacation. The coin grants their wishes BUT only by half~It is a wonderful summer read.\n\nGolden Compass or Subtle Knife by Phillip Pullman ~ If you like Harry Potter, try these~~~\n\nDr. Franklin's Island by Ann Halam~\nA plane crashes on the way to a wildlife conservation station deep in the rain forests of Ecuador. Semi, Miranda, and Arnie are the only survivors. They are stranded on what seems to be a deserted island, with only the little food and water they could find. They are unaware of being watched by a mad scientist eager to use them as his first human specimens in genetic engineering. His experiments cause them to experience the world in a whole new way... as animals!\n\nAlice in Wonderland by Louis Carroll~classic fantasy~

What you are looking for is called a "book".

some books that I really enjoy reading is the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K Hamilton. This series is about a chick that can raise zombies, kills vampires, dates werewolves, etc. It's got great one liners in it. (I can read them over and over, lol). Another good series (if you are into series style stories) is the Amelia Peabody Series by Elizabeth Peters. Her series is usually about murder mysteries, set in the rediscovery of Egypt, (about early 20th century) There is also the Song of the Lioness quartet and The Winding Circle quartet by Tamora Pierce. These are wonderful if you liked the Harry Potter (by JK Rowling) series or the Narnia series (by CS Lewis)

Did you want that in 25 words or less? \n\nMaybe you should go to the library and check out a book.

I just read "All the King's Men" by Robert Penn Warren for the first time since high school. I forgot how good that book is!\n\nOther good fiction: (1) "The Corrections" by Jonathan Franzen is just all-around great, (2) "David Copperfield" or "The Pickwick Papers" by Charles Dickens are light and entertaining, and (3) "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" by Roald Dahl is imaginative like the movie but darker. \n\nGood non-fiction: (1) "Confederates in the Attic" by Tony Horwitz is possibly the best books I've read in a long time, (2) "Baghdad Without a Map" by Tony Horwitz is a close second, and (3) "Family" by Ian Frazier is a well-written account of the author's ancestry.\n\nHappy reading!

I say go to your local library or school library if you're still in and check a few out.  There's no better place than at home where you can just lounge and enjoy a good book.

Try R.L.Stine books and I don't mean the Goosebump ones. \nI have a few I picked up in a New & Used bookstore near me. \nThey are located in the Teen section not the children's.\nI'm much older than you and I enjoyed them.

Childrens books.\n\n\neyeQ is a speed reading method. Basically all speed reading methods say read and dont stop, even if you miss almost everything. Then read again and again without stopping your pace. Try it. It works, but you have to practice every day, to get and to keep.

I would vote for A Midsummer Night's Dream.  It's a great dose of comic silliness with just enough philosophical inquiry into the relationship between dream and reality to give you food for thought.  The last scene alone is worth the price of admission (or rental, or the cost of a good book).

Easy, exciting, egotistical, empathetic

"To Kill a Mockingbird" is pretty good; there is some under-stated humor and lots of juicy stuff for essays. It has the best definition of courage I've ever read, too.
