wider reading on my personal statement

Hi,
Im applying for law at oxford, bristol, warwick nottingham and 1 other. But i just realised I have actually read any actual books for my wider reading and so on my personal statement is just me referencing law articles/ blogs by academics. I have had work experience and I have also sat in a law lecture which i have also talked about. Is this enough or should i just quickly read a law book so i dont look lazy.

Yes - better to reflect deeply on what you have done and know about rather than reel off a list of books you can't talk about in depth. Best, J
