Books
In the past few years, I’ve been doing a shabby job at actually finishing books. Last year I thought I was doing pretty well until I realized I’d only managed to finish 15 or 16 books. Seriously, if GWB can manage to read 110 books while president, what’s my excuse?
So, this year, I’ve signed up for the Goodreads 2011 challenge — I’m going to try to read 40 books.
Of those books, I’m going to try to keep a pretty equal count on men and women authors. I’m also going to make a concerted effort to read a fair number of non-fiction books and books written by people of other races, ethnicities, and nationalities, as well as books outside of my comfort zone (about war, for example). We’ll see how I do. (I’ll try to add corresponding links to the categories as they arise.)
For your convenience, if you are so inclined, you can find my hasty comments about what I’ve read or have been reading here. If you have any suggestions on something I should read, feel free to contact me or recommend within tumblr.
So far, I have read 33/50 books (83%). See them here.
Books, gender, technology, politics, cats, life. Remember this:
