Book Challenge

[annuin]

So, I'm attempting the 50bookchallenge this year. I found out about this mid-way last year, and didn't get as far as I would have liked, even if I had pro-rated the amount of books.

Mostly I'm just wanting to increase the amount of books I read this year. Lord knows the stacks of To Read books are getting to be bigger than I'd like.

And so maybe 50bookchallenge will be to bookreading what embodiment might be to paper journalling. Incentive. Kinda.

Anyway, 2 4 down, 48 46 to go.

In my case I think the quota might help me to read more (and so far I've read 4, and am about a quarter into the fifth). Last year the amount I read was abysmal, I think maybe 10-12 books or so. Okay, so that's still more than many people, but as a self-proclaimed lover of books and avid reader, it was less than avid. (Granted, with a small child, I have an excuse, but still).

As I keep acquiring books, the To Read pile just keeps growing, and I felt it was time to take steps to reduce that pile, and to make the reading keep up with the incoming books.

Have you read any other Poppy Z. Brite books other than the ones you own but haven't read yet?
