I'm so picky about my books, so if I don't have the same covers of each I just automatically feel like I have to get them to match. I don't know why, but it's such a weird habit.

My books are well-organized (by genre and author), but I don't really care so much about the appearance of my bookshelf or the series on it as long as I can go right to what I'm looking for.

I have two bookshelves, and the first one is my favorite books on the top shelf then two shelves of my Shadowhunters books. The other bookshelf has my Harry Potter books, Percy Jackson, and then four shelves of random books.

I recently had to get rid of a bunch of Warriors books that I hadn't touched since middle school, and it freed up a whole shelf. The rest is HP, PJO, Shadowhunters books, LOTR, and a mixture of books I was forced to buy for school and classic novels I chose to read on my own.

My English teacher has a small book club that she created, and we meet up every week. We're reading diverse books, so our last book was The Hate U Give and now we're about to start a book called The Art of Blending In.

That's cool. My school doesn't do a whole lot of academics-oriented clubs. The only one I can think of is quiz bowl (which I'm in). We also may have a math team and an engineering/robotics team, but I'm not sure.

@Becfromthedead group

Yeah. Quiz bowl is the only one that I'm in that I love. My teammates are the best, but we have zero outside support. Last year, we made it to the national tournament, and our principal said he'd pay for the registration and ask the Board to pay for our hotel rooms, then a week before the tournament, we were told the only thing paid for was registration, and we had to pay for the trip ourselves, with some people unable to afford going on the trip, since there was no time to fundraise. We're also supposedly one of the top schools in our state, no thanks to the way things are run.
As for the writing club, scheduling never worked out, and it fell to pieces.

The Hate U Give is going to be an OBOB book for high school next year

Although I liked the Mortal Instruments, I agree the Infernal Devices was muucchhh better. And there was a lot of things wrong with tmi and Cassandra Clare too… Just not gonna go into it.
