Just cleared another ebook - Dodgers by Bill Beverly. This book was incredibly honest. It honestly portrayed the life of a black boy born into gang life in the inner city. It honestly portrayed how a black child is perceived by white privileged America. It was written well. That being said, it was difficult to read. The subject matter is not easy. But it's an important truth. Definitely worth reading. 4 stars

I just finished reading All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. This was a book from last year’s audiobook purchases. It is beautifully written and very descriptive.

I've been meaning to sign up for this one but I keep taking books out of the library! I will start as soon as I'm finished with my current library haul. (But I'm also trying to reduce the number of books I buy by taking more out of the library so it's kind of already working, ha)

My goal is 10 books. Lots of classics so it will also check things off other challenges.

Mary, Called Magdalene
Crime and Punishment
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Water Wings
