Reading


Ok so i'll admit it, i'm defiantly not a reader.

This last summer I took the goal of reading the entire Twilight series, which i'm glad to say that i did accomplish. Because i normally don't read at all outside of school text books, reading some of the Twilight's 400 page books was out of the ordinary for me.

Last night I attended a Banned Book event at Winthrop that talked about books that have been banned in public schools. I noticed that many of the books I never had to actually read in school. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Catcher in the Rye, To Kill a Mockingbird and Of Mice and Men were just a few books that everyone that i talked to said they had to read in high school.

I thought it was weird because I never had to read these.

So thats my new goal.

I'm going to make a list and start reading "old school" books.

I'm serious.

Should be fun..and a good relief from all of the rest of my life.

Until Later,

Laney
