Nikki Reed - Reed Returns To School To Perfect Literature Skills

TWILIGHT star NIKKI REED returned to school in 2008 after fearing she wasn't as well-read as she should be.

The actress quit her lessons when she was 14, after the success of Thirteen - the movie she wrote and starred in - and tried to homeschool herself.

Reed didn't do a bad job and managed to pass all her high school exams but fears she missed out on her literary education - because she wasn't surrounded by people she could discuss great books with.

She says, "I started taking college courses... not to complete, not for a degree... just because I felt like I missed a lot - like Catcher In The Rye and books that are part of the curriculum that I'd skipped a lot."

The actress is also studying Greek after falling in love with Greece while living there in between the two Twilight sequels.

She says, "I'm going back there. I leave again on Monday for Europe... Nobody recognised me there."
