Number the Stars kind of annoyed me when we read it in Fifth Grade

Like important time in history and decent writing and all, but so generic and bland

I had to read that in fifth grate too
i remember just skimming it and answering the questions that the teacher made us answer

I kinda liked it when I read it in fourth grade, probably because it was World War II, one of the most interesting wars IMO. (Did I mention I'm a bit German and a bit Jewish?)

Tons of the Jews were.

It wasn't the Germans versus the world, it was the Nazis vs the world.

Re: What are you reading?

A book in the 33 1/3 series about Brian Eno's Another Green World. He's a pretty interesting musician, so it's cool to see how he did what he did.

Re: What are you reading?

Now I'm reading Shifter, by Janice Hardy.  Ridiculously good, deeply emotional, mysterious.  Perfect.  Probably one of the best books I've ever read.  The series is the Healing Wars.

We didn't have a reading level above the one forced to read Number the Stars!
You didn't miss much though.
Just lots of sitting in a house talking, with the vague threat of Nazi's hanging over everything, is all I remember
