140 and Out!

One of the pleasures of reading is sharing good books with friends. We love to tell each other about characters and incidents that thrill, chill, and move us. 

This collection was created with sharing in mind. Each review is the student’s honest appraisal of a book read in the last quarter. Many students loved their books; others did not. 

As part of the assignment, students also had to send out a tweet about some aspect of their books. This is where the title of our collection comes from. Interested readers can look up #140CharactersAndOut on Twitter and see abbreviated versions of many of the reviews here. 

We hope you enjoy this book, and that it helps guide you to new favorites at your local bookstore or library. 

Sincerely,

Chris Schillig
