The Girl Who Played with Fire Considering all the school work, actual work, and other things I’ve had to do in the past few weeks, I haven’t really had much time for reading. This makes me sad. There are a lot of books that I want to read…and school is getting in the way. IRead More
Slow Beginnings
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Yesterday I finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. What a fantastic book. I wasn’t sure when I started it, since it was pretty dry at the beginning. But once you get into the story, you get roped in. Larsson weaves a story that you justRead More
Morality and Race
To Kill a Mockingbird I know it’s odd that I never read this book in high school, because most people do. It’s a pretty standard piece of literature that’s read it schools. Because I never did read it, I decided since I was an English major, I should probably read it at some point. SoRead More
Shakespeare and School
So I haven’t actually finished To Kill a Mockingbird yet, because I’ve been so crazy busy with stuff for school. I’m about 3/4 of the way through it, and it really is a fantastic book so far. I’ll let you know more about it when I finish it. I have, however, finished reading Hamlet forRead More
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
The Perks of Being a Wallflower The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky is a book that I’ve been wanting to read for awhile. Other books have come before it…and now I wish I would have read this one sooner. It was so good! I didn’t want to put it down while IRead More
Clockwork Angel
Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices, Book 1) To be honest, I finished this book a few days ago, but I haven’t really had the time to write about it because I’ve been swamped with homework. But it’s the weekend, and I figured that I could take a break and write about it now. Clockwork AngelRead More
Reincarnation
All You Desire (Eternal Ones) Everyone has heard of reincarnation, correct? When you die, you come back as something or someone else. It’s a concept that I don’t personally believe in. You get one chance at life, so you better not mess it up. At least, that’s my opinion. But the last novel I finishedRead More
Taking Technology to Another Level
iBoy What would it be like if you had all the capacities of an iPhone in your brain? It’d be pretty spectacular, wouldn’t it? That’s what happens to Tom Harvey, the main character of iBoy by Kevin Brooks, after an iPhone collides with his head and causes extensive damage. After the collision, pieces of theRead More
Sisters and Friends
Henry’s Sisters Before I read (or finished) Lord of the Flies, I had to read Henry’s Sisters by Cathy Lamb for our book club. And that was quite an interesting book that dealt with a lot of different issues. Overall, I liked it a lot, the voice was great and the author kept meRead More
A Confusing Swamp Story
Chime You know those stories where the narrator constantly refers to something that you have no idea what it is? And then you don’t figure out until the end what exactly it is? Well Chime by Franny Billingsley is one of those stories. The main character Briony constantly says “I’m a bad person, I’m aRead More
