100 Books in 2011
100 books. 365 days.
Here are the rules:
1. Read 100 books or more in 2010.
2. Keep track of how many I read.
3. First time reads only.
(Also allowed: books that were read to me as a child that I haven't read to myself before, and books I haven't read in over 5 years.)
* = Had it read to me as a child, first time reading it for myself
** = Read it for the first time so long ago that I had forgotten everything in it
4. Recommendations are welcome, just remember to check my 2010 book list first using the tag on this entry. In addition, I like fantasy except for certain authors like Robert Jordan, sci-fi, general fiction, supernaturals (NO TWILIGHT OR YOU DIE), historical fiction, bizzare fiction (i.e. authors like Carlton Mellick Jr.), medical fiction or non-fiction, official fiction from established universes (like Warcraft or Star Wars series), dark fantasy, satire, parody. If it's on paper, I'll probably at least glance at it and try to read it XD
