YR 11's: what books are you doing??

So, what books are all you other year 11's out there doing?

I'm doing: Girl with a Pearl Earring, Minimum of Two and The Handmiad's Tale.

I just want to know what the schools apart from mine are planning...

Thank-you!

We're reading the book thief, Macbeth, and studying on the context of discrimination. We read Minimum of Two last year, which was a really confusing book. ???

Gattaca was an okay movie, but the message behind it had powerful and scary themes about the future.
