Books update

Hi all! What's up?

So, books I've been reading, am reading, and will be reading:

I just finished reading The Borrowers by Mary Norton. I had really wanted to read that since I watched The Secret World of Arrietty (which I posted about here) so I'm really glad that I finally had the time to read it! Very good book. ^-^

I'm starting The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. One of my favorite books when I was younger was an abridged version of this book. I still have it too and sometimes I read it and look at the artwork, so I figured I should read the real, unabridged version. I have a thing against abridged versions of books anyways- when I read Little Women, my dad had the abridged version and I didn't know what that meant, so I thought I read the whole thing and I hadn't and my friend started talking about the part of the book that had been cut out and I was so lost, so I had to read the whole unabridged version and I kept checking to make sure it was unabridged. It wasn't so fun for me because I didn't like reading back then. But I loved the book. ^-^ Anyways! The Secret Garden! I'm reading it!

After I finish The Secret Garden, I have Emma and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen that I want to read. Well, Pride and Prejudice is a re-read, but it's one of my favorite books and I just got both these books for my birthday last month, so I want to re-read and read these two books.

Yup, that's all for now! depending on how quickly I can read these I may have another books update in about a week or so. ^-^ should be fun, but there are other things to do too. Life is good for living and doing things and you should enjoy it while you can.

See ya!
