The Return of My To-Read List

Reason #2 why I love the summer: See entry title.

Unfortunately, I'm picking up the same bad habits- something I hate but can't help doing. Reading more than one book at a time. I finally picked up The Fountainhead last month while I was at B&N. I almost fell in love within the first few pages. I'm also reading an autobiography called Wild Swans by Jung Chang. I bought the book off the streets by Park Avenue over a year ago. It's very good and I'm learning a lot about my culture.

Here is what I also hope to read this summer:
1. How to Travel with a Salmon- Umberto Eco
2. Lovers Discourse- Roland Barthes
3. Motherless Brooklyn- Jonathan Lethem
4. Madame Bovary- Gustave Flaubert
5. Ursule Mirouët- Honoré de Balzac

to be continued!
