Searching for East of Eden...

Amanda switched classes from regular English, with obnoxious immature boys to Honors English this week. I'm glad she was able to switch (based on her grades from last year). I'm very proud of her! The down side right now, is that the summer reading she was supposed to have done for Honors English is two more books than what she already read for regular English 11, so... she has a LOT of reading to do. She started reading East of Eden yesterday... It is a 700 plus page book, and from what I understand heavy reading!

I had a thought tonight, if I had a copy of it as well, I could try to read along with her, and when she is just too tired to read, perhaps I could read aloud to her (and I would know what it was I was reading...).

So, DOES ANYONE have a copy of EAST OF EDEN, just hanging around on a shelf at home, that they wouldn't mind lending to me? and if so, would you mind bringing it to Church tomorrow so I could get it from you? That would be FABULOUS!!!!!! I will go ahead and say thank you in advance!!!!!
