I am in high school and an avid reader. I recently decided to take myself on an adventure in reading classic novels. I usually read fluffy teenage-targeted books that in no way challenge my reading ability. I am just beginning to be challenged in my high school English courses. I put in a little research and found a list of 100 Books to Read Before College and 101 Books You Should Read in College. Perfect! This was great but quite overwhelming.
My future plans include attending college to become a high school English and literature teacher. If I plan on being successful in college and my future career, I know I must be more well read then I am now.
While my coursework for school is extremely difficult and my time is crunched, I plan on beginning to work my way through difficult novels over the next few years. My blog posts may be few and far between for awhile but I will also post on books that I am reading in my current high school literature course which focuses on the epic classics including the Iliad, Odyssey, Dante's Inferno and the Aeneid.
