Summer Reading
This summer I took a book vacation to a place of magic and unrest. Not very summery books you might say but on a hot July day I immersed myself in the snow covered Hogwarts Castle. Nice and cool, better than air conditioning.When all around me was happiness and sunshine I hid in a dystopian world. Dystopian books and movies are every where now, think Hunger Games. The word dystopia comes from dys + utopia. Utopia is an imaginary world where every thing is perfect. When that perfect world falls apart, buildings crumble, people run a muck, you get D-Y-S-T-O-P-I-A!
So, what does this strange reading material say about me? Maybe that I like my books to take me to places I couldn't possible really go to. No, it does not say that I don't believe in rules. I just like to imagine what it would be like without them, how would I survive...
What does your reading choices say about you? Think of three of your favorite books. Why did you like them?
