(no subject)
(things i definitely want) to read (or reread) this summer:
for pleasure:
the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
midnight's children
the hobbit
year of the flood - margaret atwood
froi of the exiles - melina marchetta
the rest of the flight graphic novels.
also, i've been pondering the idea of trying to read everything i'll have to read for classes in the fall. i think it'd probably be pretty helpful as well as interesting because then my reading in the fall wouldn't be an introduction to the works.
