This book contains random chapters about... well, pretty much anything. Reading this book you should expect tags, rants, pictures, and anything I really feel like posting.
I either post this very frequently, or hardly at all in a month.
I also pos...
In other words, its summer for me, folks! *Does a cringey happy dance*
And because of that, I had to write a to-read-list for the summer:
Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publishing, please remove it or upload a different image.
It's an EXTREMELY long list... But I SHALL NOT fail this challenge! *pumps a fist in air*
...It'll probably last into the school year.
Especially since there are J.R.R Tolkien books on the list, heh.
Now, onto why I have these books on the list.
{Hobbit & Lord of the Rings}
I have these books on the list for one BIG reason: I've been wanting to read them for AGES, and I think it's high time to read them.
{Hunger Games}
Okay, I actually started reading the trilogy at the end of 2017, but I stopped about halfway of the first book. I was kind of-- admittingly-- a little creeped out. Honestly, though, I can probably read it now, since I've read other gory stuff since then (and I really did enjoy it. I just needed a break).
{Unwanteds}
I'm actually CURRENTLY reading the series. There are about seven books and I'm on the third, and I do enjoy them incredibly.
{Windfeather's Saga}
I heard they were really good, so I thought I should read them. I don't know a lot about the books, but I'm okay with that.
{Wings of Fire}
I heard it was about dragons. 'Nuff said.
{Maze Runner}
I have a friend who is OBSESSED with the books, and it sounds intriguing. My mom wants to read it first, though, so it'll probably be later when I read it.
{Percy Jackson & the Olympians}
I read the series already, but I want to reread them to remember the little details. It's been too long... I need a dose of PJO.
{Aretmis Fowl}
I actually know like nothing of these books, but the description of the book was very captivating... and my friend's older brother said it was a very good series.
{Kisses From Katie}
Reading the title you probably think it's a teenage-love-drama-thing-book, but it's NOT. Here's what it's about (I found it on Goodreads):
What would cause an eighteen-year-old old senior class president and homecoming queen from Nashville, Tennessee, to disobey and disappoint her parents by forgoing college, break her little brother's heart, lose all but a handful of her friends (because the rest of them think she has gone off the deep end), and break up with the love of her life, all so she could move to Uganda, where she knew only one person but didn't know any of the language? A passion to make a difference. Katie Davis left over Christmas break her senior year for a short mission trip to Uganda and her life was turned completely inside out. She found herself so moved, so broken by the people and the children of Uganda that she knew her calling was to return and care for them. Her story is like Mother Teresa's in that she has given up everything—at such a young age—to care for the less fortunate of this world. Katie, a charismatic and articulate young woman, has gone on to adopt 14 children during her time in Uganda, and she completely trusts God for daily provision for her and her family, which includes children with special needs.
To further her reach into the needs of Ugandans, Katie established Amazima Ministries. The ministry matches orphaned children with sponors worldwide. Each sponsor's $300/year provides schooling, school supplies, three hot meals a day, minor medical care, and spiritual encouragement. Katie expected to have forty children in the program; she had signed up 150 by January 2008; today it sponsors over 400. Another aspect of the ministry is a feeding program created for the displaced Karamojong people—Uganda's poorest citizens. The program feeds lunch to over 1200 children Monday-Friday and sends them home with a plate for food; it also offers basic medical care, Bible study, and general health training.
Katie Davis, now 21, is more than fascinating, she's inspiring, as she has wholeheartedly answered the call to serve.
{Screwtape Letters}
By yours truly, C.S. Lewis. It's a book I'm reading for my Youth Group Summer Book Club thingy.
Yeah... So that's what I'll be busy doing this summer! (And a lot of other stuff, like vacations, camp, tennis, volleyball, etc.)
What are you guys planning on reading this summer?
(I encourage reading Keeper of the Lost Cities if you haven't!!!!!)
