My Pathetic Totals

My experience with the 2012 reading project has been bittersweet. Bitter, because I didn't read as much as I usually do, and this is my last shot with the project. Sweet, because despite my very hands-off approach this year, students still read. I let you know that I knew you could do it, and you did it! See, reading wasn't that hard.

My future with books is kind of up in the air. I think I'll still read 20+ books a year after being done with teaching  English. I was a reader (for a short time) before I started teaching English, but the skills I've gained in teaching others how to be a better reader has definitely made me a better reader. Funny how that works.

My accomplishments: I read 5 books, and started but didn't finish about 5 others. These are the 5 I finished:

  1. This is a Book by Demetri Martin
  2. Slanted and Enchanted by Kaya Oates
  3. Seriously I'm Kidding by Ellen
  4. Financial Peace Revisited by Dave Ramsey
  5. Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling*
*My Favorite
