Josh Mock has written 8 entries about this goal

Three more to go...

Only three more books until I’m done with this goal.

I guess the overall intent of this goal was to get in the habit of reading more regularly. I believe I’ve achieved that goal (and wish I had chosen that as a thing instead of this), but I’m not considering this one done until the list I originally made is finished.



Hmm

This is one of those goals that I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to check off. I keep adding books to the list, and by the time I finish all the books that are currently on it, there are going to be more books to read. Maybe once I finish all the books currently on the list, I’ll close this goal and start a new one that’s more of an ongoing “read two books a month” type of goal or something.



Full up-to-date list

I’ll just edit this entry with adds, removes, and finished books.

  • A Wrinkle In Time
  • An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, David Hume
  • A Clockwork Orange
  • Meditations on First Philosophy, Descartes
  • A Grief Observed, C.S. Lewis
  • Catch 22
  • Everything Is Illuminated
  • Ender’s Game
  • The Great Divorce, C.S. Lewis
  • Angels And Demons
  • Five Dialogues, Plato
  • The Da Vinci Code
  • Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
  • High Fidelity
  • Blue Like Jazz
  • The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2004

I finished Blue Like Jazz.

I got High Fidelity for Christmas and am currently reading that.



Updates

Since my last entry I’ve finished:
Five Dialogues, Plato
The Da Vinci Code
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I am currently reading Blue Like Jazz.

And I’ve bought A Grief Observed and The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis, so those will most likely be next.

Also added to the list: Angels And Demons by Dan Brown



A couple more for the list...

Adding A Clockwork Orange and Catch 22 to the must-read list.



Current "must read" list

A number of books grace the list, both fiction and non-fiction. Most of the non-fiction are either college philosophy books I never read (but still got an A in the class for, mind you) or Christian “inspiration” books recommended/given to me.

In no particular order:
An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, David Hume
Meditations on First Philosophy, Descartes
Five Dialogues, Plato
The Da Vinci Code
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
High Fidelity
Ender’s Game
Blue Like Jazz
A Grief Observed, C.S. Lewis
The Great Divorce, C.S. Lewis
A Wrinkle In Time
Hard To Believe, John MacArthur
The Life God Blesses, Jim Cymbala
He’s Been Faithful, Carol Cymbala
The Church God Blesses, Jim Cymbala
Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire, Jim Cymbala
Fresh Faith, Jim Cymbala
Fresh Power, Jim Cymbala
Waking The Dead, John Eldredge

Yeah it’s quite a list, and I’m sure I missed a few, too.
