So, to be fair, most of these were college reads from Young Adult and Children's lit classes I took. Those classes were amazing and the reading lists included books I would have wanted to read anyways! All of these books were so amazing and left such an impact on me. What books did you like reading in school?
Oh wow. You read much more recent books than I did! Most of the books we had to read in AP Lit and AP Lang were British lit, like Chaucer and Shakespeare and such. Crime and Punishment, War and Peace, etc. Night by Elie Wiesel was good though (I feel like I butchered his name, ahhh). My favorite from school besides some Shakespeare plays was A Room With a View!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, Ashtyn! Have a fantastic day. =)

I read a lot of the older ones as well but since starting college, I've been able to read newer novels in my lit classes which had been really nice!
DeleteThanks for stopping by, Alyssa!
Oh I remember reading Sold like...years ago. It really impact me too. So brutal and eye-opening and I'll never forget it. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
