Quote:

“The wonderful thing about books is that they allow us to enter imaginatively into someone else’s life. And when we do that, we learn to sympathize with other people. But the real surprise is that we also learn truths about ourselves, about our own lives, that somehow we hadn’t been able to see before.”
~ Katherine Paterson

"cut"

i barely started reading cut and i must say im a bit disappointed by the way it starts. for some reason its just not captivating enough. i think im getting bored of it already :/ not good. but i'll read a little more and hopefully i can change my opinion.

Ok..so I'm not very good with computers, so it would be cool if we also discussed how to work with this program on our next meeting!

Pretty good book. Very sad ending, but enjoyable throughout the rest.

it took me about a day to read this book when i had the time to finally sit down and read it and it was wonderful. So far this is my favorite book( although not what i usually read either) that we've read because it is a very thought provoking read.…

I think cut was a really good book. But the ending was kind of a let down to me. Nothing happened really.
