It's been about a year since I started participating in Fill In The Gaps. I'm making good progress. I've read 22 so far. I'm having the most trouble with the Books I Should Have Read In High School section. I haven't enjoyed the classics I've read so far (Lolita & The Sun Also Rises). I haven't even touched the Books I Own and Haven't Read Section! It's so hard for me to read my own books. I get most of my books from the library. I read those first since they have a deadline on them.
Here are all 22 reviews:
The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
A Reliable Wife
Little Bee
The Sisterhood of Traveling Pants
Fluke
Lolita
A Year In The Merde
From Hell
The Rest Falls Away
Cold Mountain
The Triumph of Deborah
Thank You For Smoking
When You Are Engulfed In Flames
The Help
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
North Of Beautiful
Justine
The Beach House
The Luxe
The Sun Also Rises
I Was Told There's Be Cake
I'm excited by my progress and hope to have 1/2 the list completed by next year.
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteSo these come from several lists, like "books you should have read in high school" and "books you own"??
You have been busy.
ReplyDeleteI never set myself lists like this, I just can't find the time for reading.
That is a big list! Here is an award for you: http://cherylbaryl.blogspot.com/2010/06/new-blog-award_04.html
