take a look... inside a book... reading rainbow


When it comes to reading, I don’t discriminate. I’ll read fantasy, science fiction, and mystery. I’ll read classics and fan fiction, memoirs and graphic novels. If the story has an interesting plot and is well-written, I’ll read it. But that doesn’t mean I’ll enjoy it. I’m a stubborn reader; though I can usually tell within the first 50 pages whether or not I’ll like a book, I can’t let it go unfinished. Books I truly love, books that make me think and question, will be read multiple times until the pages are ripping from constant turning and the cover is ratty beyond recognition.
In etymology class, I look forward to having time for silent reading again. Too long has it been since I last had time to read for fun. I will attempt to read many a book from a variety of genres and use this opportunity to explore different writing styles and points of view. Hopefully this experience will encourage me to make time to read once the semester has ended.
