Of endings and beginnings (25 new)

Reading-wise, this is the best year I've had...a wapping 425! I wanted to read a book a day and I did that so 2009 was a good reading year for me.

I've always read a lot but never had any place to keep track. In order to state what I've read in 2007 (168) and 2008 (217), I pulled online records of books I'd sold. I'm actually sure there were more than that but we had a few garage sales where I gave a whole lot away so no way to really tell. I don't count any book that I don't finish in my final tally.

Anyway, I don't have a reading goal for 2010. I do have over 1000 books at home that I would like to start making my way through...if only I can curb the impulse to buy more. I have a real weakness for book sales especially the good ones so I'll have to see how it goes. But I must admit that I have way too many books and I really do need to start reading them instead of collecting more.

I love the challenges as they force me to choose books currently on hand. It is one sure way to widdle down my mountainous stack of reading materials.
