About This

At the beginning of 2007 I started making a list of all the books I wanted to read. It was a pretty long list so I decided to create this blog to help keep track of the books I've read starting January 1st, 2007.

My original goal was to read 100 books in a year, but then I decided that might be too big of a goal to start with. So I made my goal considerably smaller and I decided to try to read 25 books in a year instead.

I reached my goal and then some. I read a total of 28 books in 2007.

My overall goal is to eventually read 1000 books.
