I have posted reviews of all of these books on goodreads and Shelfari

I read 100 books last year and this year I’m going for 50. I love to read but averaging 2 books a week was a little difficult sometimes. This year I plan to do some other things that will take much of my time so I’m cutting back. I will continue to post on Shelfari and on Goodreads in order to keep track. That worked out nicely in 2008.
