2015 Reading Challenge [Closed] discussion

So, I'm in my last year of high school, and have a couple months of free time until University (Fall Semester). So I was thinking, what better thing to do than challenge myself... I'm 17, live in Ecuador, so some of these books might by hard to do (specially the hometown one ._. I gave up and simply decided to go with a book with legends)

Many of these are books I have never read before from authors I have heard of so many times but never found the time to read, others are re-reads, obviously but I'm sure I'll still enjoy them nevertheless.

P.S. I might be changing some books from time to time. (I have already changed some The Color Purple for The Green Mile, and Il Postino for SAO and also Rule for The Glass Room) This is because of their availability or because I have changed my mind xD

I didn't know the writer of How to kill a mockingbird is a woman! It doesn't matter but well, I thought it was a man.
Yey Peter Pan, my fav ^^ I hope you'll like it. I'll read it again for sure this year, but in english :)

Haha, you learn new things everyday! :D
I really hope I enjoy Peter Pan. My first experience with it was in Disney, of course, and then comes the funny part, a lot of Disney movies, have a huge twist in the real book they are based off (What I mean is the chilhood ruiner moments). So I was wondering if there's such a thing in the book.

The Disney movie is more about magic and adventure, when the book gives at some point a society analysis (for example, the characters are not all gentle and friendly and there's a price to live in Neverland). The 1924 & 2003 movies are more about the original story, but the Disney is a nice way to discover Neverland (with flat characters...).
After reading the book, if you have some time, watch the Disney again and tell me what you think about it :)
