How to read 50 books in 2009.
It made me
 "I love reading and thanks to my lovely little local library I hit this target quite quickly."
How I did it: I just took any opportunity to put my nose in a book and let myself escape into another reality. Reading should be about enjoyment so be wise in your choices and you will soon find your book count rising. Resources: Charity shops, local library, friends lending me books.

How I did it: Went to the library a lot. Read lots of Newbery Award books. Sometimes there would be long gaps where I'd be distracted and wouldn't read anything, and then there would be bursts of reading to make up for it. Read how I did it…

How I did it: My best friend helped the most. She gave me books every week. I didn't go to the library but it would have been nice too. Out of all the book I read probably only 30 were ones I had never read before. My favorite was the book my mom got me for my birthday. It's called The Thirteenth Tale. Check it out.

~ Steven D. Levitt
A quick and highly informational read. I had been wanting to read this book for years, and suddenly got the motivation to do so in the middle of my sociology class, and I’m quite glad I did. The connotations that Levitt found were incredible and astounding. I cannot wait to read the sequel.
