Reading List 2007
This is my reading list for 2007. I'm just keeping it so I can keep track. If you care to check out what I've read so far this year (for some reason), this will be at the top of my journal page. I realize a few of these wouldn't actually be at the top of my wish list, but on audio you sometimes take what you can get/find.
A few from 2006, just so I remember (I'll probably add to this later)

04/05/2007 Ok, In additon with my TAL listening - I'm half way through 20,000 Legues Under the Sea, that's going.. oddly, it's interesting enough that I want to finish it, but annoying enough that I can only handle it for short periods of time. also half way through A Short History of Islam, the language is completed, but I think I'll finish the audio, and then reread it in book format when I can give it more attention)
