1984. Almost done. Should've finished ages ago, but I haven't had consistent time to read it. And it's longer than I remember. And the last time I read it, I was in 8th grade and had considerably less interest in understanding the chapters describing the evolution of their government.

Apparently "almost done" was a very big exaggeration. The exact same comment holds, though.

But I thought she said maple leaves..

We're still focusing on our summer reading novels at the moment, so: Brave New World and The Handmaid's Tale. I have to say that I am sort of sick of them... though the former is pretty good.

As for leisure reading, I'm not reading anything at the moment.

I finally finished 1984! I intend to (re)start Catch-22 next, but I have about 50 million essays and things to read first.

Nevermind, I no longer have time for Catch-22 (again). I have to read All Quiet On the Western Front (and we're reading Macbeth in class).

I finished the A-list series too!! But I'm not reading anything now, too busy scheduled with homework, plus I have my piano exam next week!

I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection.
Excellence, I can reach for;
perfection is God's business

I'm reading All God's Dangers: The Life of Nate Shaw for HIST 121. I only got through the first few pages and so far, I'm not liking it. It's really boring and repetitive. I hope it gets better as I progress. =\

Some PSAT book, I'm so determined to beat my friend this year. Other than that, I'm reading this book called Why We Lie.
