My List of Books to Read

267ae0b5bf9db4ece6114cc9a8285af1Just thought this was cute, and it’s true.

Since I think I mentioned that I have a list of books that I plan on reading, I’ve decided to post it on here. This list is not definite, and it is in no particular order. I do plan on adding to this list over the year, and I would love more suggestions.

A Dance With Dragons – George R. R. Martin
This Side of Paradise – F. Scott Fitzgerald
On the Road – Jack Kerouac
Girl, Interrupted – Susanna Kaysen
The Virgin Suicides – Jeffrey Eugenides
Peter and Wendy – J.M. Barrie
After Dead – Charlaine Harris
Lolita – Vladimir Nabokov
Actors Anonymous – James Franco
Palo Alto – James Franco
The Stranger – Albert Camus
The Rum Diary – Hunter S. Thompson
House of Darkness, House of Light – Andrea Perron
The Mortal Instruments (series) – Cassandra Clare
Divergent (trilogy) – Veronica Roth
As I Lay Dying – William Faulkner

There are definitely some more that I’m just forgetting. Comment and leave more books that you think I should read or that you would recommend.

My Resolution

Every year I struggle with what my New Year’s Resolution should be. Lose weight? Eat better? Enjoy life more?

On New Year’s Eve, a friend of mine posted a list of every movie that he watched in the last year. It was neat to see which movies he had watched in the span of a year. I thought about doing the same, but honestly I wouldn’t remember to write down every movie I watch. It just wouldn’t happen.

So that’s when I came up with my own twist of his list.

My New Year’s Resolution: Keep track of each book I read this year.

My overall goal is to just read more. I’ve had a list of books I’d like to read and I need the motivation to get through them. I hope to get through all of them this year and add a ton more to the list.

If you stumble upon this blog, leave me comments. Tell me about your favorite books or books you’d recommend. I’d love to hear from you.
