Finally got around to finishing one book off my list:

1/6

Box Set: Writing the Right Way
Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life by Anne Lamott - 3.5 stars

Lamott is very funny, but this book just didn't inspire me to write. I'm very interested in her other writing however so I will definitely be looking into that.

[Angela Jr.]

i'll start out with three box sets and 12 books, but i'll maybe add more later on!

classics
1. the great gatsby
2. the hound of the baskervilles
3. frankenstein

hyped-up books
1. illuminae
2. a darker shade of magic
3. night film
4. carry on
5. look who's back
6. a gathering of shadows
7. grace&style
8. eragon

shatter me (this has to be the most unoriginal idea so far)
1. shatter me
2. unravel me
3. unite me
4. ignite me
