Snow-Day Assignment

Reading this year has been better than last as I have read more enjoyably and more freely. When I read a book that I love it seems to be the only thing I want to do, however when I don’t like a book it feels like a chore; the only obstacle of me being a constant reader, finding a book that I enjoy. So how have I been finding books that I love this year, two words; my sister. My sister has been giving me great recommendations and I have been able to pump out lots of books this year. Of course I have been primarily reading fantasy books that usually have a quest of some kind but they always seem to intrigue me. When I find that next book I go straight into my room in the corner where I have my comfy beanbag and read non-stop. I also like to turn on Pandora and play it softly while I read so I can take breaks occasionally and have some fun. This year I have changed to be a more satisfied reader and one that has started to enjoy reading. In my previous years reading has always been a skyscraper of an obstacle but this year it has shrunken to more of a hurdle and get smaller with every book I have read. For the most part I need to be pushed a little to read and I will do it, when the school year starts that’s also when my reading starts and I completely forget reading during the summer. However this summer I think I can change that and will definitely change it. This year I value reading a lot more and am hoping to fit it more into my schedule. I am also expanding in my book genre trying to read more of history because I love history especially war generals.
