Reflection

The student read 3 books over the school year: Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson, Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson, and Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson. They found Catalyst to be the most difficult to read due to some dark moments, but felt it was still a good story. They did not meet their reading goals for the year and wish they had concentrated more on reading. Their favorite book was Speak as they found it very relatable to high school experiences.

Reading Reflection

Twisted by Laurie Halse Anderson


Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson

The books that I read taught me to keep pushing through tough situations, especially

Twisted. Tyler was put through really hard situations, but he the way he just got through it all

really taught me that you can’t let anything stop you. Catalyst was the most difficult book I’ve

read. It had a lot of dark moments in it. When Mikey died it was really difficult for me to finish

reading. I don’t usually like reading sad books, and although this one was very sad, it was a good

read.

I did not reach my reading goals. I really wish I

concentrated more on reading this year, I just can never focus

on reading for a long period of time. I wish I at least tried

reading more genres.


My reading habits did not change much over this year. I’ve never really been a big reader

and I don’t think I ever will be. I would like to try out some new genres I’ve never read before,

but I’m worried I’d get bored and never finish them. I conferenced a couple times this year. They

did not go as well as I would have liked, but that is all my fault. They would have gone much

better for me if I read more and updated Goodreads regularly. My favorite book I read this year

was Speak. I think it can be very relatable to lots of high school students. A lot of the things that

happened in the book are things that I have seen happen in real life. I really enjoy reading

realistic fiction books because of how relatable they can be. I would say I am someone who

enjoys reading books if I can relate to them. Other genres tend to be boring to me and I can never

finish them. If I am really interested in a book, I will be able to read it and enjoy it. For example,

I don’t enjoy fantasy books that much because I know it could never happen in real life, and I

can’t relate to it. I didn’t quite stick with my plan to read 12 books this year. I got very distracted

and wasn’t able to finish it. Next year, I would really like to try more genres and maybe find one

I enjoy like realistic fiction. I think I also need to push myself to read more, even though it’s not

something I really enjoy doing.

In the middle of the school year, I lost my Goodreads account so I don’t have any of my other

reviews, or my reading progress.
