I keep hearing people say 'summer reading list'. Maybe my school was strange? We didn't have required summer reading. The books we read we were forced to read during the school year, and there was no list to choose from. The teacher passed out copies and said "everyone will read this in the next few weeks, chapters such and such due by so and so date" and that was that. There was no selection, no choice. If you'd already read it, too bad- read it again. If it gave you nightmares, you were just overreacting.

Was my school strange that we had no choice in our reading?
