Reader's Thumbprint |
I'm not going to lie, it has been very tough adjusting to this semester. But now that I am finally settling into a routine, I am going to be posting more!
For me, this semester is all about self discovery and planning my future. Law school is probably going to be happening, but I am okay with that. Maybe even a little bit excited. I am currently taking a class called Race, Crime, and Law that has won me over to the legal side of things. Plus all the good jobs require a JD, so it is definitely in the cards for me.
This semester has also been a semester of non-stop reading, which is a good thing to practice for law school. Last semester was full of Greek literature which I loved, but definitely got sick of by the time that finals came around. That's probably the number one reason that I was glad to have winter break: it gave me time to rekindle my love of reading. Along with a book by Agatha Christe and a book on psychopaths, I read Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar. It allowed me to appreciate a book in a way I had not been able to for a long time. I'm really looking forward to the summer for the same reason. That is not to say that the books that I'm reading this semester are not amazing- Michelle Alexander's The New Jim Crow contains some of the most important ideas for my generation- but it will be nice to lay in the sun and read a book at the pace of a normal human being.
Do you have any great books that bring you back to your love of reading?
