I have so many books on my shelf that I haven’t read and I’d like to make my way through those so I’m starting bedside reading. I’ll slowly make my way through books by reading a little of them every night before I go to sleep. I’m starting with The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I’ve read this one before, in high school, but I think I might enjoy it more now so I’m trying again.

    This is a great idea. I am about to read a chunkster of a book, so maybe I will keep another by my bed and read that in the evening. I was sort of wondering how I would keep up with the other books that I want to read while I take on this bigger book.
    I am planning to read The Great Gatsby again in the fall. I want to read it again before the new movie comes out.

    Enjoy your bedtime story. I definitely want to read this book someday. Having heard the movie was coming, I think I should get to it soon.

  • Great idea! That’s a fun way to get through your list. =D Hope you have a lot of fun with it and that this is helpful. I haven’t read The Great Gasby, you’ll have to let me know what you think of it. =D I’ve heard mixed reviews on it, it all depends on how people like classics I guess.
