Booki's Books?
This is probably quite boring for most. I just need someplace to save my ever-growing list of books for this summer. I want to get most of these read over the summer. I don't think I'll have time during the year, so I figure this is as good a time as any. I still have to organize my massive "to-read" list. For now, this will do just fine. Don't mind me. :)
- The Princess Bride: S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure William Goldman
- Angela's Ashes Frank McCourt
- Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince J.K. Rowling
- Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister Gregory Maguire
- Jane Eyre Charlotte Bronte
- Memoirs of a Geisha Arthur Golden
- Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West Gregory Maguire
- I Capture the Castle Dodie Smith
- Peter Pan J.M. Barrie
- The Joy Luck Club Amy Tan
- The Life of Pi Yann Martel

- A Clockwork Orange Anthony Burgess
- Virgin Suicides Jeffrey Eugenides
- Girl, Interrupted Susanna Kaysen
- The Little Prince Antoine de Saint Exupéry

- Eldest Christopher Paolini
- A Great and Terrible Beauty Libba Bray
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower Stephen Chbosky
And that is just my watered-down list. I have so many more I want to read... Ha. I need more time. I read and cross off the books on my list, but each time I go to Borders or Barnes and Nobles, I find more and more to add, so then I end up never having too many crossed out because the list keeps getting longer. ::sigh:: The ones below are the mandatory ones that I must read for school. Not a bad bunch, I suppose. We'll see, we'll see.
- Wuthering Heights Emily Bronte
- One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich Alexander Solzhenitsyn
- A Prayer for Owen Meany John Irving
- Antony and Cleopatra William Shakespeare
- Much Ado About Nothing William Shakespeare
So... that's it for now. I keep hearing about all about these great books that people have read and that sound absolutely fantastic, which eventually leads me to yet another entry edit and yet another title stuck to the end of my list. If I didn't keep adding, I would be almost done. Well fancy that.
