Book Club

If you like reading then the SDCH Book Club is for you. During the first semester of the 2010-2011 school year we will meet regularly to discuss 10 books of different genres and you will vote for the one you think should get the Christian High School Book Club Award. The winner is announced during a festive meeting at one of the OACS Christian High Schools.

The list of books is carefully chosen by the librarians of the participating Christian high schools. The nominees for 2010-2011 will be put on the website at the beginning of September 2010, just after Summer Break.
We hope many students join the book club. Past experiences of students are extremely positive!

Here are the titles that we did in the past school year 2009-2010, just to give you an idea.

1. Acceleration, by Graham McNamee
2. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, by John Boyne
3. The Hobbit (by J.R.R. Tolkien), graphic novel illustrated by David Wenzel
4. Megiddo’s Shadow, by Arthur Slade
5. Anne of Green Gables, by Lucy M. Montgomery
6. Safe as Houses, by Eric Walters
7. The Book of Negroes, by Lawrence Hill
8. Little Brother, by Cory Doctorow
9. The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins
10. Crow Lake, by Mary Lawson

The winner of the Christian High School Book Club Award 2010 was….

The Hunger Games

by Suzanne Collins. It got 28 votes, The Book of Negroes ended in 2nd place with 9 votes.

We hope to see you in September. In the meantime: happy, sunny reading!
