| So, what are you reading? I'm reading 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne for the Academic Team. It was published in about 1870, but it's pretty neat. It's about these people are in a shipwreck and are taken on board a 250 foot long submarine called the Nautilus. Captain Nemo, the man that is the captain (Kind of obvious.), has isolated him and his crew from land and human society, living entirely off of the sea. Everything is powered by electricity, which in the 1860s, when it takes place, was not small feat. They get their electricity by this really neat process that I'm slightly confused by, so I probably can't explain it to you properly, but it is neat. So, um, what are you reading? EDIT: The Nautilus is said by Captain Nemo to be exactly 230 feet long at the beginning of the Chapter 13.

| That's a pretty good book. Ending was somewhat disappointing, but Jacob's narration was pretty neat. |

| You should read. Reading makes people smartical.  Not that you're not smatical already. Reading just makes smartical people even smarticaler. Still reading 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. But it is extremely good now that I've gotten farther into it. |

| Oooh, New Moon, that's my favorite in the series. I finished 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and then read the second book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, The Sea of Monsters. Now I'm reading the third book in that series The Titan's Curse. |
