Reading

Reading has never been my thing. I do not like to read, but I know that reading can be fun and interesting if you look for a good book. In High School, I had to read for English and Spanish class, and I usually did not read the books and used a summary for the test and quizzes. Some of the books I actually read were “The Great Gatsby” “Jane Eyre” and “The Scarlett Letter”. These books were some of the many I had to read. I honestly prefer to read books in Spanish, I read them faster and understand them way better than an English book. I challenged myself this semester to try and read at least two interesting books. Since I am studying Business, I decided to buy a Business book. The book’s name is “The Lean Startup”. I started reading the book last Friday and I enjoyed it. I was reading the book in my bed at 11ish pm so I fell asleep, but continued to read on Saturday. My favorite book is in Spanish and it is called “La Casa de Bernalda Alba”. It is a play by the Spanish dramatist Federico García Lorca. Commentators have often grouped it with Blood Wedding and Yerma as a “rural trilogy”. Therefore, I will try and accomplish my challenge of reading more books this year, after I finish reading the business book I bought, I will buy more books because reading is good. Also, I know I will learn a lot from these books.
