8. A Midsummer Night's Dream, by William Shakespeare. This is, in truth, a reread, for when I played one of Titania's squad in a virtual staged reading, but I'm counting it. I pick up on more and more with each reading and each viewing. Still, this is an example I give when I point out that plays are meant to be seen, and any high school teacher ( Read more... )

So far this year I've mostly been focusing on reading books that I plan to pass on to other people during Black History Month. The books I've read so far for this challenge are:

Again, this year, I am being bad about posting books as I read them and am starting off the year with a batch-post of books 1-4. Sadly, my webkinz addiction and knitting have cut into my reading and caused me to be woefully behind.

These books were: The Eyre Affair (A Thursday Next Novel) by Jasper Fforde, What's Your Poo Telling You? by Josh ( Read more... )
