Challenging:
I dont think its necessary to lower or raise my reading count. I know that in college I will
be reading less fiction books, which is mostly what I read, and start reading textbooks. I plan to
start weaning off of fiction books so that I can prepare more for college readings.

Post HTHI Reading

I plan to read at least one non-fiction book, and continue to read and annotate others. I
hope to increase my informational reading so that I will be prepared for college. Otherwise, I
hope to continue YA Fiction novels.
