So, I have one of the best freinds ever! He gave me over 1,ooo e books for my nook and now I have enough books to last me... well... a while. Ive downloaded about 20 of them on to my nook as well as a few new ones. I actually have a reading list for 2011 and will share it with you as soon as im done compiling. Its a work in progress and will be a masterpiece when finished.
At the moment I am reading THE BELL JAR by; Sylvia Plath and I must say that even thought its a short book, a mere 170 pages...its worth the read; it shows you the relationship that a struggling women has with her future... does she persue her academic future and walk away from what she should become...or not. It rips her apart as she realizes that her life is a series of events that even she cant control.... it showcases the relationship that she has with a man and the relationship she has with her self. Its a harrowing journey and def worth the time to read. I am about half way throught and I must say that it brings up valid points of the independence of women.
Do men purely think of women as the rugs they walk upon. Once they have marriage and children they turn into putty with no serious thought? Esther wonders if she should even get married because it will take away everything she has worked for until she realizes that she doesnt know what shes working toward.
It makes you take a look into your own and life and determine if you are living to your potential and really doing what you have set out to do.
