IMPORTANT REMINDERS ABOUT COMMENTS

Thanks for getting your posts started Knights. Just a reminder that your first name and homeroom MUST be in your comment. I have already received 6 comments with no name - I can't give you credit towards voting if you don't tell me who you are. Also, be sure your comments are detailed and show that you read and understood the novel. "It was a great book, lots of action, really exciting, especially the amazing ending" is something I don't want to see :( this tells me nothing! Use specific details from the book to support your opinions (e.g., names of characters and places, explain the conflict, explain what you liked and/or disliked about the plot). Comments without sufficient details won't be posted and cannot count towards voting.

Happy Reading
