I'm Baaack!

It's been so long since I've been able to read anything other than textbooks. On the first day of my winter break from school I picked up Ballads of Suburbia by Stephanie Keuhnert and it reminded me why I love reading so much. Now I'm rereading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows because I wanted to be able to compare it to the movie. For the most part, it stuck to the plot of the book, sometimes taking the dialogue directly from it. I was pleased with it and can't wait to see part two whenever it comes out.

I went shopping at 3:00 AM on Friday to take advantage of all the Black Friday sales. It was crazy but so much fun! I went into Borders and couldn't resist buying something. I got Wuthering Heights and Pride & Prejudice. I feel like the majority of the books I read are newly released and I wanted to get some more "classics" under my belt. Hopefully, it will help prepare me for college and just to be more well-read overall.

I'm definitely not going to be finishing my 100+ Reading Challenge this year. School takes first priority over everything else and reading for pleasure just fell to the wayside. But I'm on break for a whole month and plan to catch up on my humongous tbr pile!

What are you reading this December?
