Tue, 22 Dec 2009 01:40:40 -08001. What is the total number of books you have read this year? (an approximate number or range is fine)
55 - Not to shabby considering I only downsized my career life to one job, 6 months ago!
2. How many total TBR books do you personally own? (not counting the books you've already read)
Umm, Not sure, I have a LOT of eBooks and I am not sure how many of those are actually on my TBR... but I have 20+ hard copies
3. What are 3 "New Year's Reading Resolutions" you'd like to set for yourself for the coming year?
♥ Not feel guilty about purchasing at least ONE book a month
♥ Read two Classics that I have not already read in an educational setting
♥ Find new and improved ways of interesting my children (Students that is) in the power and fulfillment of reading!
4. Name 2 things you'd be willing to give up (or cut down on) in order to give yourself more reading time in 2010.
♠ My consistent compulsive need to spend 4 hours a week rearranging my iPod play lists - I'm just going to have to learn that my Cardio list will always be the same 50 songs no matter how many times I revamp it
♠ No more watching re-runs on tv! I have wasted countless hours watching Criminal Minds re-runs on A&E when I could be reading!
5. Name 3 authors you've never read before, but definitely plan to try in 2010. ]]>

The Da Vinci Code within the last 5o pages and I figure I still "read" the book, and it is not my fault it was so easy to see what was coming... but if I am only 1/2 way into the book then no.. it really does not count.
If I find the book incredibly terrible I will post a review saying I did not finish it - but usually that is with a disclaimer that either I will finish the book later or that it is entirely my opinion, and my personality that does not fit with the style of the book.]]>
