November 2007

I got off to a very quick start in my first month — 5 books — but then I picked up the guidelines and had to ask that two of my books be removed from my list. So now, I’m at 3 books, which is still ahead of schedule to finish 23 books in under a year.

Here’s my progress so far, at the end of one month:

1. A Man Without a Country by Kurt Vonnegut
2. Firmin: Adventures of a Metropolitan Lowlife by Sam Savage
3. Money Doesn’t Grow on Trees: A Parent’s Guide to Raising Financially Responsible Children by Neale S. Godfrey

Here are the two books I had to have removed from my list:

• Families That Play Together Stay Together! by Cameron and Donna Partow (I had to remove this from my list because guidelines state that you cannot count books that you own — only books you borrow from the library!)
• Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl (I had to have this book removed from my reading list because it is not categorized as an Adult or Young Adult book.)
