What you will do next - well, technically after the MGRP which will be due the Tuesday after break -  is to do the second round of the Sticky-Note book report round #2 (minus the Sticky-Notes this time).  What you will do this time is choose one topic from your book and research it in-depth with a hyper-text essay.
