Read a lot of books

I’m trying to create a list of all the classics I want to read and I have a friend who is just as in love with reading as I am so we are a book club duo right now!

This is just the beginning of my list:
Wuthering Heights (half way through it)
Pride & Prejudice
Brave New World
Sherlock Holmes
Emma
Catch 22
1984
Rabeca (is that how it is spelled?)
Grapes of Wrath
Sound of Fury

They will keep coming….

but for this summer I will be accomplishing Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice and maybe one other…

This is too broad a goal and how will I ever know if I’ve done it?

I finished Twilight by Stephanie Meyer a couple days ago. It is my sister’s favorite book, so I had to give it a try. It was pretty fun, but I’m a little undecided on her writing style. I can’t tell whether I like it or not. Her words are very cold (I don’t know a better word), and for a vampire story it does work, but I don’t think it would for anything else.

There are so many kinds of books and each of us have a preferred book to read but no matter what kind of books is that you will still going to learn something. Reading book is really time consuming but isn’t it that is more practical to use your time in doing those things which can benefit you than wasting your time in those things which will only detriment your life, like bad habits? Why not make reading a habit?

Haha, having an English class this semester has increased the amount of reading I’ve been doing. It’s required reading, so it’s not quite as fun, but any reading is good reading!

• Pamela by Richardson
• Shamela by Fielding
• Evelina by Burney
• Lady Susan by Austen
• Dangerous Liaisons by Laclos

I recently finished reading Stardust by Neil Gaiman. I really like fantasy, so it was an enjoyable book for me. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants a fun easy read.

And well, I’m still reading magazines. hehe!

I’m back in summer classes again, so I haven’t read a book in ages! I’m halfway through Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro and I really like it, but I don’t have time to read it.

At least I’m reading magazines as study breaks, I guess?

Hey, I’ve been doing this for a while, but I’ve slowed down a bit lately. I like nonfiction, but have my favorite fiction authors. I also have put of number of classics on my list to read. Although I read quite a few good novels in high school, I never read The Scarlet Letter, so that’s going to be next. I’m also re-reading the play The Glass Menagerie by Tennesse Williams, which I read in college.

For nonfiction, Marley and Me makes me laugh out loud. Eats, shoots and leaves by Lynne Truss was very funny as well.

This goal is going really bad… Everyday a read less and less :)

I’m a slow reader, but I have read 3 books so far this summer. Granted, one is a Chronicle of Narnia, haha, so very easy.

I’m currently reading Choke by Chuck Palahniuk and I’m finding it pretty interesting. Hopefully I’ll be done with this by Sunday.
