I've been doing a poor job of keeping up with what books I've read this year, and an even poorer job with staying on track with my goal. I don't have time to post all the quotes I liked, but just to keep track:
[1] The Paris Wife -Paula McClain
[2] Ruth Hall -Fanny Fern
[3] Behind a Mask -Louisa May Alcott
I'm not including Bared to You, because it wasn't a real book as much as a way for me to discover how truly shitty something can be, and still get published. So disheartening. Also, there were two more books for a class that I didn't finish, so hopefully I'll get back to them. And a bunch of poetry from the romantic era, but obviously that doesn't count either.
Now I'm just making excuses. I'll have to focus a little more if I want to make it to 50. I'll make up a lot over the summer. But I'd really like to get to at least 10 before spring break.
I'm back to Pride and Prejudice, but I just started over rather than return to where I was last time I stopped reading. My priorities are out of wack. At some point, I'm just going to have to commit to my "Books I Should have Read Before Coming to College" list, so I can work on the "Books I Should have Read in College" list, which I'm realistically much closer to completing.
I believing in commitments to leisurely reading.
