Books
Since August 8, 2008
I want to keep track of how many books I read between now and when I graduate. I'm kind of stealing the idea from Natasha. I don't really want to set a goal for myself though because I always seem to set my reading goals too high and then get disappointed. Plus who knows how much time I'll have for reading once the school year starts.
