New Year's resolutions seem like such a stupid thing. We all make them, then end up abandoning them by the 2nd week of January. I am guilty of that as well, so this year I decided to make a resolution that I would actually stick to. My main resolution is to read 300 books by January 1st, 2012 at midnight. This seems like a large task, but in 25 days I have read 11 books already, and for those that know my schedule, that's a pretty big accomplishment. I plan on posting every title/author for every book I read on my blog.
January 25, 2011- 11 books read, 289 books to go (these are in no particular order by the way, because they are randomly spread out through my book journal)
Rockstar- Jackie Collins
Room- Emma Donoghue
Princess Ben- Catherine Gilbert Murdock
Half-Baked: a memoir- Alexa Stevenson
Betrayed, a House of Night Novel- P.C and Kristen Cast
Chosen, a House of Night Novel- P.C and Kristen Cast

If you are looking for something to read and would like a synopsis of what these books are about, please comment and I will hook you up with some. As my Accelerated English/Composition teacher says, "Happy Reading!"
Someone else recommended Room to me. Did you like it?
ReplyDeleteIt was pretty good..my friend got it for me for Christmas....it's a little on the strange side, so if you aren't big on "strange" books I wouldn't recommend it...
ReplyDeleteKelsey, I love how you are helping yourself achieve your goal. I know you'll read 300 books.
ReplyDeleteInspiring!
