Hmmmm. I like even numbers. And I like even dates. So I am going to retroactively start this for August 1st, 2008. So, I already have one book done.

1: On Chesil Beach – Ian McEwan

What I like about reading is that by reading a book, you can develop an interest for the author’s other books. Case in point, I’m adding Atonement by Ian McEwan to my list of books I want to read.

Also, looking at this goal I realize now it may be a lofty goal as 50 books per year equates to about one a week. But I want to try….

50 books a year
