what's your summer reading list looking like? i'm kinda late on this topic.
Atlas Shrugged - Ayn Rand The Maltese Falcon - Dashiell Hammett Thinking with Type - Ellen Lupton others that i can't think of at the moment but will add to this later. cross out what you've read and highlight what you're reading and we'll make this thread a running list kinda thingy. |

^ Set a timeline for when you'd like to finish your book by, then count how many days you have until the deadline. Then divide the book/play into however many pages per day you have to read to make the deadline, and mark it with Post-Its. Then you can visually see how much you have to read a day, and stop once you reach a Post-It.
That's how I got through shitty required readings in high school. |

I'm definitely going to do that. I think it will be much easier to dive in once I see a more achievable stopping place. It looks so intimidating with the stopping place being 300 pages away >.< |
