Cecilia's Second Climb Up Pikes Peak

[Cecilia]

I didn't finish my climb last year, so here's hoping I do better this year.

Welcome back, Cecilia! And here's to good climbing in 2019!

You can do it! One book at a time!

1) Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier, read 1/26

I absolutely loved this novel. I wish I had read it before seeing the movie, but I was still able to enjoy the twists and turns. Now to rewatch the movie since I haven't seen it since I was in high school.

I think it's included in the rules that re-reads of owned books are allowed as long as it has been five or more years since reading the book, but I think I'm not going to include those books. I re-read two Harry Potter books, but I feel like they shouldn't count because I want my climb to only include books that I have purchased/own and never read.

2) Night Film by Marisha Pessl, read 2/13

3) Make It Stick by Peter C. Brown, Henry L. Roedigger III, Mark A. McDaniel. Read 2/13

This book took me so long to read; I'm happy to be finished with it. Still a worthwhile read, though.
