Free Book Friday -Flowers for Algernon
I read Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes last year. I can't tell you how much I loved this book. It's about a retarded man who has an operation to improve his intelligence. The book is written in the form of his diary, so you get to see the progression of his intelligence through his writing. Even though I can usually count the number of books I read in a year on one hand, I quickly became attached to this book and finished it in a couple days. I highly recommend you try it out.
As I mentioned yesterday, my next Get Organized project is our bookcase. I cleaned up some of the bookcase yesterday and came up with a stack of books that I've already read and don't need to keep around anymore. I thought it might be fun to have giveaways for these books. So, if you want this book for free, leave me a comment letting me know that you want it. Next Friday, I will post the randomly selected person, at which point you'll have to email me your address and I'll ship it right off. And since only four people read this blog, you're chances are good :)

Oh my gosh, this book is so good. You'll love it! And it must be an easy read because when Josef was living with us, he was required to read an abridged version of it (he's was in the 8th grade). But really, he didn't get out of it what I did.
Well, seeing that you're the only one who wants the book... sure! you can have double names! :)
