Kelly Dent  (kellythebookbug) | 10 comments Let's do this thing! I would have liked to make it 100, but then I'd struggle to keep up with my course's assigned reading for university.

so far I've finished:
1. The Garden of Forking Paths
2. Wuthering Heights
3. Heart of Darkness/The Secret Sharer
4. Tamburlaine
5. Blood Promise
6. The Hunger Games
7. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd

Happy reading to anyone who sees this x

Mawgojzeta How was Borges? I am planning to try his book, Labyrinths this year.

I personally enjoyed his work and had the added advantage of analysing the text in class at University. Anything Borges is definitely going to be an intelligent and intriguing read. :)

Mawgojzeta Thank you for the quick response! I am pretty excited about reading some of his work. Did not know about him until recently; seem to keep "hearing" his name the last couple of months, which is how he ended up on my to-read list.

Kelly Dent  (kellythebookbug) | 10 comments No problem - let me know what you think of Labyrinths! :) happy reading.


Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) I still need to read Wuthering Heights on of these days. Don't have the book yet either so that doesn't help. Curious more about reading Jane Eyre though. I'm reading the pop culture version Jane Slayre and it's hilarious, getting me more interested in the classic. Want to finish this one and the classic before then starting on the movie.

I really recommend Jane Eyre - I couldn't get enough of it (definite page-turner). Wurthering Heights felt more tedious (but that might have something to do with the fact that it was assigned by my course). I love the pop culture versions - Jane Slayre, Android Karenina, Pride and Prejudice and zombies - very creative XD
