About reading meter

 There is a web site I often access. It's called 'Reading Meter.' In that site, I can organize my reading life. For example, it shows the average page I read per day, or how many books I read. Not only that, I can search the book and put them in either 'Want to read', 'have it but still not read', and 'finished book.' Ofcourse, there are English book, too. (So I may put my book for the book report after I read it)As the result, if I found interestig books on Amazon book store, I can go to the Reading Meter web site and put that book in the 'want to read' page so I would not forget it.
 Another useful function of this web site is the book shelf. In the 'finished book' page, I can classify the books I read by their genre, evaluation, author, or anyway I want. In my page, I classified my book shelves for Japanse book, English book, and How to book. In my book shelf for English book, there are only 12books. So I will work on to fill this book shelf.
 By the way, my favorite foreign author is Lemony Snicket. He is an American best selling author who sold his Series of Unfortunate Events 30 million copies. I loved these series because the story is interesting and the English is not so difficult. Now, I'm trying to read Dan Brown's 'Angels and Demons.' This book is much much much difficult compared to Unfortunate Events. It took me a month to read 200 pages and I only understood about 50% of the story. I still hadn't finish this book and I might give up. I also have 'The Da Vinci Code' in my book shelf(in the real life) And my brother living in America will buy me 'Lost Symbol.' I know if I read the translated version of the book, I can enjoy them. But many people say that, the original is much interesting than the translated version. Further more, I'm taking English Literature course in the University, so it's good idea for me to challenge these books.


I have a question. Do I have to write 4 paragraphs even if I had enough sentenses to wright two paragraphs in one paragraph?
