READING: What I Have Read!

I love reading. I read my first novels when I was about eight or nine years old, the perfect hobby for a young, deaf boy looking for a retreat from a world that was hard to participate in.

The joy of reading books hasn't gone away so, here, I have listed the books I have read since Summer 2006. The books are listed in reverse chronological order meaning the first titles below are the most recent ones read by myself. I have devised a small rating system, rating titles on a scale of 1 to 5.
