I know it's a great list but the list I have to choose, and I need to read one that will be easier and quicker to read. Thank you again!
Beginnings by Eudora Welty writer is 114 pages paperback and trade is an absolute breeze to read. Go to it, it's fast, easy and good. You can not go wrong.
They are all very similar topics and lengths of the page so I would choose the one that seems most interesting for you since you've waited until the last minute.
Virginia Woolf, A room of their own
But if you're a guy, you can not appreciate.
rhymes .....
I hope you know that none of these will be short bed. They are all at least 200 pages. Most of them look like American classics and others, like the book of Barack Obama, biographies and are probably no less than 200 pages. The best you have is to see if there's one of those books on CD or cassette to your local library.
I feel like you slacked off so long and is in a deadlock, bummer. Well good luck to you.
My favorites in this list (which is loaded with good books, but I'll try to remember "quick and easy") are:
This Boy's Life by Tobias Wolfe (great book, easy to read and humorous)
Blue Highways by William least heat-moon (not as easy, but quite short if I remember, as good but not as good; opinion only)
My first summer in the Sierra by John Muir (who still writes short, if you must be prepared for a man who loves nature when she is really wild and stormy, a different kind of guy)
The Souls of.
