Read 52 books in 2006

How to cut your own or anyone else’s hair…by Bob Bent
I Am That…by Swami Muktananda
The Way of the Drum…by R. Buddy Helm
The Zahir…by Paulo Coelho

Finished! I’m moving over to the ‘Read 100 books in 2006’ goal. Happy reading everybody!

A Density of Souls…by Christopher Rice
Kafka on the Shore…by Haruki Murakami

Haruki Murakami’s book really slowed me down. I had trouble finishing that one. I also had to return ‘Breath by Breath’ to the library – I was halfway through it – but I’ll get it back in a few weeks and finish it up.

Three non-fiction, one fiction. Funny, I’ve been trying to read more fiction lately, but I keep veering into non-fiction despite myself!

My Sister’s Keeper…by Jodi Picoult
The Way of the Labyrinth…by Helen Curry
The Good Women of China…by Xinran
Bold Spirit: Helga Esby’s Forgotten Walk…by Linda Hunt

It was rainy last week, so I read and read and read and read. It’s a good thing I did – at least four books are coming to the library that I’ve had on hold request. The coming week will be busy for reading!

As of today, I’m 10 books away from my goal!

Eat More, Weigh Less…by Dr. Dean Ornish
Hello, I’m Special…by Hal Niedzviecki
Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui…by Karen Kingston
The Autobiography of a Tibetan Monk…by Palden Gyatso

Walking a Sacred Path…by Lauren Artress
The Lovely Bones…by Alice Sebold

The Compassionate Life…by Dalai Lama
First There is a Mountain…by Elizabeth Kadetsky

I’ve read some terrific books in the past week. ‘Snow Flower’ was particularly good.

Spendid Slippers…by Beverly Jackson
Every Step a Lotus…by Dorothy Ko
A Woman’s Guide to Tantra Yoga…by Vimala McClure
Yoga: Discipline of Freedom…by Barbara Stoler Miller

Yesterday, I finished ‘Life of Pi’ and a young adult book called ‘Secrets’ (which I read on a dare – it wasn’t bad!). Both are reviewed on my account on All Consuming.

In the past two weeks, I’ve read four new books (bringing my number of completed books up to 20) and started three new ones. My goal is to read 8 books in March.

Currently reading:
