    Hi lads,
    I am repeating the Leaving Cert this year and last year I studied How many miles to Babylon?. However, as it turns out, that text is on the course this year and my class is doing three other texts (This Boy's Life, Sive and I'm Not Scared) so I actually have 4 texts.
    My dilemma is that I do not know which theme to choose. Can ye please give yere opinions by rating these themes from first to last:

    1. Friendship (using Babylon, Im not Scared and Sive)
    2. Childhood (using Babylon, Im not Scared and This Boys Life)
    3. Identity (using Im Not Scared, Sive and This Boys Life)
    4. Family Relationships (using Sive, Babylon and Im not Scared/This Boys Life)
    5. Isolation/Loneliness ( Babylon, Sive, This Boys Life)
    6. Loyalty/Betrayal (This Boys Life, Babylon, Im not Scared)

    Much appreciated :)
