I am going into the fifth grade, and during the summer I want to read a lot of books. But the only problem is I don't have any books to read. so what do you recomend?

I am a lot higher then my reading grade level. I really like historical fiction, realistic fiction, and fantasy. But really I am open to any thing. So what do you suggest.

I have heard Christians make the claim that America was founded on Christianity. This is a claim I reject. But even granting that this were true, it raises another important question. Even if we grant this nation is founded on Christianity, should it be? Germany was a Nazi nation in 1933, but is that good? Christians commit a historical fallacy in claiming that since something is historical, it is correct or good. Based on that logic, slavery should be reinstated and only wealthy male landowners should be allowed to vote. Even if this nation were founded on Christianity, which it isn't, I believe that we should "UNFOUND" and employ a separation of church and state. Not just because its in the Constitution in the very first amendment, but because it is the right thing to do.

I want to read more, but I can't seem to do it. I'm in my 30s, and when i get home from work, I'm dead tired. I don't watch TV much; I just web surf a lot. What habits can I form to get myself to read more? (novels, technical journals, etc.)?

It's not really a biography of such, more like a cross between a diary and a statement.
It's called "Life as a Fourteen Year Old Girl in a Grammar School" and it's basically a statement saying that I'm not a boffin or a slag.
I just wondered if anyone would please read it for me? It's just under 6 pages long, and it makes perfect sense to me, but probably not to anyone else.

It's funny because how the hell can you write a biography at 14 years old!?!


Leave me your email adress and I'll send it to you, and could you then please read it and email me back some constructive criticism? Remember, it's no where near finished and I don't really like it. Just wanted it to make sense really.


Thanks :)
