I love to read, anyone reading this blog for the past month or more knows that. But, something you might not know is that I used to barely read one book a month.
Since I have started this blog, I read more again! And I love it! I have been reading several books every month.
I have decided to try to challenge myself to read 75 books this year. I’m not sure if it will be difficult or not for me, but I am really excited for the challenge. The number kind of scares me…But, I am still going to try!
**UPDATE** There is no way I am going to meet my original goal. I have had too many surprises come up that took away from my reading time. I am going to try for 50.
Below is a list of some of the books that I would like to read this year, I will continuing adding books as I go.
If you have a 2009 Book List, make sure to leave a link in the comments below, I would love to check it out!
