One down 49 to go 4 months ago

I read “Alice in wonderland & through the looking glass” just this summer. I have “the scarlett letter” and “the catcher in the rye” at home to read. I also have in mind to read Don Quixote.



Completed Wuthering Heights 5 months ago

Wuthering Heights – by: Emily Bronte

Good story; can see why it’s a classic; a little difficult to follow in the beginning because of the language (I’m used to easy reads), but I got the hang of it early on and was able to keep up

OVERALL- I really liked the book, but it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. That sounds terrible; I know. It just didn’t quite portray the out-of-this-world love story I thought it would.

I love to read but I always seem to seek out non-fiction. I decided that I want to read some of the classic novels that I’ve been hearing about my entire life. I think I’ll start with The Catcher In the Rye.
