Hey, well, I'm Dany and I am an extremely impatient reader. I expect excitement in the very first chapter and if it does not come quick enough I lose interest. I am not a fan of reading, it gives me a headache. Don't get me wrong, at some point in my life I use to be fond of reading, however, it was mainly children books. Okay, scratch that, get me wrong because, that hardly even counts and reading has left my heart many years ago when my third grade teacher had notified me that Dr. Seuss books were apparently "not in my grade level." I still continued to read them though, she obviously failed to realize my love for Horton Hears a Who! and One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. Believe me, if I could read Dr. Seuss books and write essays based off of them for AP Literature (Sorry Mrs. Smith), I would in a heart beat. For those wondering, yes, I do wish my love for reading was up there and I do want to become a "D1" reader, hopefully I will find the love of reading through this blog. Let's make it simpler, maybe I will favor "grade level books" over children's book. Ah, who am I kidding? Children books will forever have my heart, but you know, a girls got to grow. So, I guess I'll start by reading Beloved, by Toni Morrison. Wish me luck!

PS, Outside of school reading, reading because I genuinely want to, does not happen at all and that needs to change as well. I honestly need to find joy in reading and maybe use it as an escape, really connect to the authors.
