Academia of Darkness discussion

Talk about books- what we're reading, what we like, etc.

Well, I'm reading Scarlett by Alexandra Ripley (the sequel to Gone With the Wind). The writing is obviously a lot different since it's a different author, but the characters are on point! Scarlett is still such a biotch. Love to hate her though 😂

Nice! Kafka on the Shore is one I've been wanting to read- I've been holding it off because I want to read it in Japanese though. lol

oooo do you practice Japanese? I took a semester in the fall and loved it but I started a different school and don't have time to take a class. i've been trying to practice on my own but it's hard when you don't have anyone to speak too.

I used to! I took a college course in high school. I ended up learning Korean instead ( I found it easier) because I didn't have anyone to really practice Japanese with when my bff moved away!
But I want to get back into it again because I have a coupe of books in Japanese that I would like to read.

I´m currently reading an anthology of Poe´s tales. It´s called El gato negro y otros cuentos.

So far, so good!
