Cracking open this library book sale pickup collecting dust on my shelf.

Fences
Melodrama. Probably great on stage, but not a thrilling read.

A Raisin in the Sun

Death of a Salesman pt 1

The reason I picked this book was to re-read A Raisin in the Sun. I enjoyed it back in college, and it is still fantastic.

I think I’ve read Death of a Salesman, which is also great.

Both are a bit of a downer - not everyone attains their ambition.

Slow start so far, but that’s how half of King’s novels are anyways.

Trifles

The Importance of Being Earnest

Mildly funny writing. I think I’d better appreciate this live.

A Doll’s House

Oedipus

Committed to trying new genres/authors this year, but I can tell this is going to be a hard book to get through…
