read 25 books in 2009

I borrowed this from a friend after she recommended it to me. It’s a really uplifting and feel good book that’s simply about love. It’s a bit outdated in some respects, but the message of it will be relevant throughout time. I think the world would be a better place if everyone read this book.

23. The Introvert Advantage by Marti Olsen Laney

20. The Zionist Idea – Arthur Hertzberg (ed.)

Ugh. I have been reading this anthology for absolutely ever. It’s for class.
If you ever wanted to know what every major Zionist ever wrote or spoke about, then by all means, gives this book a read.

Very good non fiction by Albom which is about he reconnects with Judaism through a dying rabbi and a black Detroit minister.

Ah, I am about 6 books short of my goal, and totally in a rut. I don’t think I’ve read much in the last month and half. Not good!

I am determined to still complete this goal! ....I just may have to pick some shorter books, that’s all. :)

I read this book mainly because the movie that is out. It’s written in a unique style. It is a heartbreaking but inspiring book.

A very good book about a competitive runner who comes of age, rebels and finds redemption through a friendship

“If only you knew then what you know now…”

Oh, i wish…

Potter’s done it again… she managed to articulate a fantasy intertwines with reality splendidly in an interesting plots and events which unravel perfectly in line. If you enjoy reading me and mr darcy, you’ll find yourself enjoying this book as well.

And i love that alexandra leaves a note, especially number 10;
‘at 21 you are more powerful than you can ever imagine’
taking this note to myself.

Very well written book that focuses on a teenage girl who is dying of cystic fibrosis.

This is a child’s book, but it was long and apparently a classic of children’s literature. Maybe you need to be a child to enjoy?
