Reflective Essay On Cover Of Snow

605 Words3 Pages

This semester I read a total of seven books. Last semester I read the same amount of books as I did this semester. The hardest book for me to read was Cover of Snow by Jenny Milchman.

Also this book was a mystery which is a different genre that I usually read, which takes me longer to comprehend
