i went to the library hoping to come home with dan brown's angels and demons. i want to read the book before the movie comes out. unfortunately for me, someone has already checked the book out but the library will contact me as soon as the book gets returned.
not wanting to come home empty handed, i walked up and down the fiction section of the library and saw great expectations by charles dickens. i've only finished the first chapter but it's already proving to be more interesting than my previous read. don't get me wrong, pride and prejudice is an awesome book but i just couldn't read it so dapat itigil na. wag na pilitin.
have i mentioned i want to read the '100 greatest books of all time'? out of 100, i have read the following:
- Beloved by Toni Morrison (saw the movie, too)
- The Book of Job (yes, the one from the Bible)
- Fairytales and Stories by Hans Christian Andersen (maybe not all of his work, but a good number)
- Hamlet by William Shakespeare (read it in high school...oh wait! i think i read cliff notes, i'm including this to my 'read' [past tense] list anyway!)
- Pride and Prejudice (like Hamlet, i'm putting it on this list even if i haven't finished. saw the movie also)
- Thousand and one nights (read it in college)
- Great Expectations by Charles Dickens (i will finish this book!!!)
7 out of 100...not a bad start!
