love it. 2 years ago

I adore this goal! It got me into reading good literature, helped me discover amazing authors and inspired me to hopefully write up a book of my own on literature reviews :)

No where near finishing yet but in a way I am happy about that because I think I’ll be quite sad when I have finished them all and have to go it alone in my pursuit of good books. I need the guidance i think.
Anyway I am so glad I took up this aim. I’ve been introduced to some amazing books, they’ve touched me emotionally or taught me amazing , wise things. I’ll never forget them.

STarted George Orwells 1984. is absolutely fantastic so far. It is already making me appreciate the fatc that I live in a democracy with freedom. I complain about the government but hey it could be worse!!!
The story makes me think of Germany during Hitlers rule as well, and seeing it was written after the war, perhaps it was based slightly on this?

I must have been asleep when i was ticking them off because i just went back and relsed i have read 38/200 not 30. Very pleased about this!!!!!
But i don’t inderstand why so many jaqueline wilson books are up?? I mean i know she teaches kids about how to deal with things like divorce etc etc but they aren’t that good!!!

Well i saw this goal and thought ‘it is perfect for me and something i could actually achieve.’
So i printed the list and see that i have already read 30/200. Quite dissappointed but since i am only youn g i realise i spent alot of my time reading childrens books or junk books which i am thouroughly ashamed of.
I cannot wait to read some of them and i hope this goal will be a constant through these next few years of my life which are going to change and be scary and exciting.
