Starting my New Year's Resolution early by reading a book a week. It's been less than three weeks, and I'm three books down--a few days ahead of schedule.
It's really not as hard a goal as I thought it would be. The trick is to keep it going. I'm forever catching up from days I find myself in Goodwill, snagging an armful of 25 cent paperbacks and dollar hard covers. And if I want to justify asking Santa for a Kindle this Christmas, then I'd like to knock out at least the top of my must-read list from the overpopulated living room bookcase.
First was 'Tis by Frank McCourt - Loved it. Quite sad though. Led me into a full hour or so of contemplation.
And last week I finished Atwood's Oryx And Crake. - Awesome. Very thought-provoking.
Phew! It's been a hectic Thanksgiving week already, blog, but I haven't forgotten you!
Next up in the reading list: Mitchell's Cloud Atlas and Lamont's Bird By Bird.
