Waiting for my college to start, while everyone else has already gone to college, I have managed to finish:
1!. Leaves of Grass: Death-Bed Edition by Walt Whitman
When he says "Death-Bed," he REALLY means it!.
2!. The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks
I've grown tired of Nicholas Sparks and romance novels in general over the years!.
3!. A Freewheelin' Time by Suze Rotolo
I was!. Born!. In the wrong!. Era!. Why!?
4!. The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson!.!.!.by Emily Dickinson
I loved it and ended up underlining a whole lot!
5!. Idylls of the King by Alfred Lord Tennyson
All about Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table and what not!. Very interesting!.
6!. The Screwtape Letters by C!.S!. Lewis
Creepy, but hard to put down!.
7!. Wonderful Tonight by Pattie Boyd
What is it about Pattie Boyd that caused George Harrison and Eric Clapton to write such BEAUTIFUL songs!?!?!?
8!. Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
I'm not the biggest Austen fan ever, but I did enjoy the novel, though the chapters tended to be longer (I hate stopping in the middle of chapters, so I prefer shorter ones)!.
9!. The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury
Wow!. That was just mind-blowing and amazing!.

12!. The Awakening by Kate Chopin
The character of Edna irritated me to an extent, but I absolutely LOVED this book!. It kept my interest, I thought the writing was pretty good, and it was really amazing to think about how this bit of literature was shunned and criticized to shreds, but later aided in the feminist movements!.

And currently I am working on On the Road by Jack Kerouac, which I started Saturday night!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
