The One I Was Supposed To Read…
Confession time. There was one Jane Austen novel that I was supposed to read in high school; Northanger Abbey. My English teacher suggested that for my senior research paper that I read it and compare it the Mysteries of Udolpho, which I was supposed to read as well. I did read that one, just didn't …

Day Four of Gratitude: Books
Heaven for me at times is being surrounded by books. The knowledge contained in them is not power, but empowerment. In school, I was never popular; always too shy to be out there making friends and memories. The most daring thing I did in those days was go into D.C. one night. There was a …
