Reading Goals for 2007
I know there are some bookworms on my friends list, so I'm going to keep this list public as opposed to private or even friends only :)
In 2006 I read 78 books and 24 432 pages. My original goal was 50 books and 15 000 pages.
Because I'm in my last semester of school and will hopefully have a full time job starting in May, My goal this year is not going to be *how many books I can read* but more of an *I want to read more novels that challenge me, make me think and more classics* as opposed to the long list of chick-lit/fluffy novels that I read last year (though there will be some chick-lit lol)
Here's a list of books that I want to read this year:
Pillars of the Earth ~ Ken Follet
The Time Traveller's Wife ~ Audrey Niffenegger
To Kill A Mockingbird ~ Harper Lee
A Prayer for Owen Meany ~ John Irving
The Scarlett Letter ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Crime and Punishment ~ Fyodor Dostoevsky
Anna Karenina ~ Leo Tolstoy
One Hundred Years of Solitude ~ Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The Kite Runner ~ Khaled Hosseini
Grapes of Wrath ~ John Steinbeck
1984 ~ George Orwell
Of Mice and Men ~ John Steinbeck
A Seperate Peace ~ John Knowles
I Know This Much is True ~ Wally Lamb
The Thirteenth Tale ~ Diane Setterfield
I Heard That Song Before ~ Mary Higgins Clark
Nineteen Minutes ~ Jodi Picoult
Shopaholic and Baby ~ Sophie Kinsella
Woods ~ Harlan Coben
All Jodi Picoult books that I haven't read and of course other random books that I come across or have in my house :)
