3 Book Series That Will Change Your Mind About Reading

If you have trouble with reading and want to find something that might click, check out some of these series.

"Percy Jackson and the Olympians"

The series starts with "The Lighting Thief" with the main character as none other than Percy Jackson. Percy is a son of Poseidon, one of the Greek gods. During each book, Percy heads on a quest to save the world from anything and everything you can imagine with his friends Annabeth Chase and Grover Underwood. The author Rick Riordan allows each book to grow with the reader. The age range starts at 10 and as the books progress so does the reading level. He also has a second series with Percy that reaches a higher age, mostly in the teens.

"Divergent" Series


The series starts with "Divergent,"with the main character being Tris Prior. It follows Tris as she makes her journey of changing factions. The author Veronica Roth shows the main character as a strong girl who is ready to change the way her world sees things. She fights in the rebellion and eventually changes life as she knew it, all with the help of a boy named Four. The series is very motivational, especially considering the time period of change that we are in now.

"Harry Potter"


I know this is a given, but everyone needs to read this. This series is what got me into reading in the first place. Without the feeling of finding out what you are meant for, within the pages of this book, I may not want to have chosen the career path that I did. Harry and his friends are characters that are timeless and show the value of happiness. The books grow with you and never leave you even after you read the final page of the final book.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
