One of my goals this year is to read 25 books. Which isn't a whole lot, but probably more than I would read otherwise (I may be over optimistic). The list is likely to change, but so I remember...
The Book List
The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury
First Meetings by Orson Scott Card
Fear of Small Numbers by Arjun Appadurai

In the Penny Arcade by Steven Millhauser
Blindness by Jose Saramago
Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer
The Old Man and The Sea by Ernest Hemingway
The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference by Malcolm Gladwell

A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess
Animal Farm by George Orwell
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick
Other Colors by Orhan Pamuk
Forbidden Colors by Mishima Yukio (or maybe Confessions of a Mask)
current finished I think I'm a pretty ADHD reader. T-T There is a lot of japanese, gothic, and sci-fi on there because they tend to be my favorite (ok, I suck and stick to what I like a lot). Especially Orson Scott Card; The Ender's Game/Shadow series are my favorites. If anyone has any suggestions I'd like to hear them (:
