finish my reading list

I’m trying to balance my list and let myself read more fun books mixed in with the [[classic books]], the books you’re Supposed to read. I have to read Three Cups of Tea for summer reading, I just read Eats, Shoots and Leaves, and I’m trying to read Great Expectations.

This isn’t working…I’m going to give this up for now and just read the books when I get to them, when I can truly appreciate and ejoy them, instead of feeling like it’s a chore that has to be endured.

8 books to read in ‘08

• Little Women
• Moby Dick
• Lord of the Flies
• To Kill a Mocking Bird
• The Alchemist
• Life of Pi
• The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Wao
• A Clockwork Orange

It’s not much, but oh well. =)

Good Grief
Catcher In The Rye
IV
Huck Finn
Judaism
Habits Journal
Beowulf
Myths, Lies , and Stupidity
Jane Eyre

Check off another book on my list! i’m finally done. this next one should be a breeze. I’m talking about Harry Potter, of course. I’ve already read the first seven chapters!

Otherwise my “List” will keep on growing…

Currently working on “The Brothers Karamazov” by Dostoevsky.

Isnt it amazing how ones reading list is always ever growing.
While I get closer to finishing something I get new additions

This list is just too darn long. So I’m getting rid of some of the books on the list early. Just a couple, the ones that I really didn’t especially want to read, anyway. Also I rewrote my list so that I am reading two books at the same time, one fiction and one nonfiction.

I don’t feel like reading a lot of this stuff, but I feel like I need to just because I spent good money on the books. I feel like I am never going to get to the bottom of this pile of books! GRRR!

well the first book on my list is done. Beowulf is possibly one of the most boring books ever it was 3000 lines of boredom. but hey only 199 to go
