Currently, I have been trying to get back to reading books. For many nowadays, reading could be a tedious task even when they’re not really doing anything. But for others like me, reading is a joy. That is why I have taken a new task to force myself to read more again and write book reviews. That said, I was reminded of several entries posted in Facebook quite a while back and thought I’d share them with you, starting with this…let’s call it, hmnnn…alright, “chain tag.”
This was posted way back in November 2010. I may have more stuff to add, but will get to that next time. Meanwhile, why don’t you go through my list and see if you can come up with your own? BTW. I am copy-pasting per word. Here we go…
27 UNFORGETTABLE BOOKS
The rules: Don’t take too long to think about it. Twenty-seven books you’ve read that will always stick with you. Tag friends, including me, because I’m interested in seeing what books my friends choose. 🙂
