janegallagherSince the last entry, I've read:

Great Expectations, a few short stories from Kafka, a few short stories from David Foster Wallace, 1984, and Animal Farm. I’m reading The Satanic Verses now. 22 months ago


hippie14271 book case is empty now

I’ve gotten enough gone that 1 whole bookshelf can go. 23 months ago


Raindrops_On_RosesOops

So I got like..5 or 6 more books. That’s not so good. But anyways I’ve already finished one of them which was Before I fall, can’t remember the authors name though. I’m almost finished with Atonement but I’ve stopped reading it for a long while because currently I’m reading the Da Vinci Code which I got recently. I’m now on chapter 80-something so when I’m done, I’ll finish Atonement and Julie&Julia, then I shall start reading The girl with the dragon tattoo which is also new. I WILL finish all these books before my deadline!! Needless to say I am a book addict <3 23 months ago

Raindrops_On_RosesOMG :O

Atonement is SOOO good! Half way through, and can’t wait to finish so I can watch the movie :D

But…ahem I ordered 2 new books :S HOWEVER, I plan on reading them aswell before my deadline. I just couldn’t resist! They are: Pride and Prejudice, and Emma. Both by Jane Austen, can’t wait till they arrive! 2 years ago


janegallagherUntitled

I’ve completed Of Human Bondage and Wuthering Heights. I did buy a book yesterday-Invisible Monsters-but mostly because I was trapped at the airport all day yesterday and needed a fast-paced read to get me through. I finished that book already though. I’m currently in the middle of Great Expectations. 2 years ago


Helen Mary Labaoone fourth of photoreading course and i am on my second book now

This might take much longer than I had initially anticipated. But so far, so good. :D 2 years ago

i had to buy another book today for english literature… so in my defence it wasn’t really my fault that i’m failing in this goal!! 2 years ago


Raindrops_On_RosesPage Turners

Currently juggling 3 books at one time! Progress :) 2 years ago


janegallagherI'm finally taking this one seriously.

starting with: Of Human Bondage. 2 years ago


Helen Mary Labaoone at a time...one at a time...rawr!

okay, so all those books are by my bedside and some are on my bed! this is crazy. i still have an entire folder of e-books on my hard disk. this is crazy! i don’t know what to do. >_< I should start with one book at a time. Last night, I started reading a book on improving one’s writing skills. I hope to finish it this week.

I also decided to get reinforcements from habitforge.com so that I can commit to reading a minimum of 15 pages per day.

I hope this habitforge thing works with my 43things. 2 years ago
