Dangerously Irrelevant: Contest - 140-character book reviews

Thank you jon corripo for this idea! It is a contest for the best 140 character book review done on Twitter. I think it would be a fun exercise to condence a review to basically 140 letters. It would encourage students to focus in on only the most important plot points in the book. Yet, some of the examples shown at the bottom of the page show that the limited text encourages most writers to abandon basic English grammar. This will not do:)
