about books.

{W}hile being a student, i have no time to read books. well, i read them between semesters, because during semesters i cannot make myself read a novel or whatever, because there is always that other book or article i'm supposed to be reading instead. i can't wait until i've finished school and hopefully have a normal workday so that i can have the freedom of reading any book i want. I haven't even mentioned the endless horse stuff i read during semesters as well. last year though, i read 3 or 4 books during the summer, the hobbit (for the second time), and a few rockstar books. this was a victory!
nowadays though, i have a book on my nightstand called.. 101 gangster movies you have to see before you die that my sister gave me for christmas. and wow. it is really good! the actors in the 1930's and 1940's look so good! gangsters of that era are my favorite gangsters. i read about one movie each night, which is only a very small page short. so far it is working great for me. however, for the summer, i have my eyes on lord of the rings - in english. which i know will be better than the swedish translation i've read.
i have until the end of this month to finish this book about Pompeii, by Mary Beard. i've heard good reviews. and i like this bw photo above. I can't wait to go there later this month!
