still not fully here but wanted to say my bones are better now and i do not need surgery <3 (still in a lot of pain but. i can move forward now!!)

and with my new lease on life i have decided i am going to close read a bunch of high school level english-language literature by the time of my birthday in like less than a month and a half because i dropped out and it is long past time i gain an adult understanding of the broader canon and it's still. really weird that i have not fully read the great gatsby. like you'd think at least in the last 5 years i would have picked it up you know

SO if you still remember novels and short stories you read in english in a high school class, especially if they are public domain, i would appreciate inbox recommendations.. and then i can make a little list of stuff i did actually read in high school and stuff i want to read now. and then get to it.

#I read some stuff in school and not in school and some stuff. such as gatsby. I've skimmed #but i only did 2 semesters of actual high school english so most High School Lit I've read was actually before then in middle school #exceptions including to kill a mockingbird and the odyssey?? i think those were definitely 9th grade #Lord of the flies was 9th grade i believe as well . idk man #all the online lists contain a lot of stuff I've already read and do not encompass things i know people have said they read in high school
