I love the HP series. It was fun to re-read this book in Spanish. It was a great way to practice my Spanish reading, although, not sure if I'll ever need to use the Spanish word for wand in any real-life scenario, lol.

A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I have seen various versions of this story in movie form but have never read the book. It's a short/easy read. Like the movies, it highlights the importance of family and fellowship. Great book to knock off our list right before Christmas!

Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I kept on reading because I wanted to see how the story ended, and while it was pretty entertaining, I have to say it was not one of my favorite books. I'm not sure why I didn't really like it. I enjoyed reading about the characters, especially the main character, she was strong, smart, and passionate. The story ended well so that wasn't it. Not quite sure what made me not "love it." I'll have to keep thinking about it.
