BJU Literature -- do they use whole books too?

[Shari]

In looking through my BJU catalog, I cannot tell if any whole books are used in their literature courses for 7-12. All I see are the anthologies which only contain snippets. Anyone btdt? Did you add "real books" (full length novels) to your course to round it out?

We are most of the way through the 8th grade 3rd edition. We did not add any full length novels to it as we are reading quite a bit of books with our medieval history course.

I liked the layout of the book, you can do it a little heavier and finish in 16 weeks or lighter for 32. They have both schedules listed in the back of the teachers manual. I thought it would be a good start into literary analysis. My dd poor girl has largely done it on her own, but the scope of it is better if you can really go through the TM part of things too.

HTH,
