Edit: I joined Goodreads.com, so if you want to know what I’m reading, you can find me here.
Okay, okay, so I didn’t get to 100 books in 2009. Heck, I didn’t even get to 50! But I’m still going to keep adding to the list until I do get to 100.
Since I read a lot of books at the same time, the rules are thus:
Books on the list must be first time reads – rereading doesn’t count!
A book cannot be added until I have read the entire book, just starting the book doesn’t count.
I will also try to be better at writing summaries and reviews in the future, I know I’ve been really bad about that, sorry!
