Summer TBR ✔

There's only two weeks of summer left and two weeks for the beginning of school. That is why I want to read all the books I can, because I know that when school starts the only thing I will be reading are textbooks and nothing else. This are the books I am planning to read this month and next month. Some of them are in portuguese, because I need to do well in my writing and literature classes.
