Read 50 books this year.

Have only finished one book so far, so I should pick up my pace! 3 weeks ago

I am currently reading Jessica Rules the Dark Side. I read the first book and I liked it pretty well. I didn’t reach my goal of 50 books last year but I am going to make it this year! I have 43 things to help me. I also have a new Barnes & Nobles membership card which will give me good discounts. I also downloaded the nook app for my android phone and have downloaded several books for free. I was also given over 10 books just for Christmas so I don’t have an excuse this year!!!! 1 month ago

Currently reading: Paris to the Past by Ina Caro
This book combines two of my favorites: trains and France.

To be read:
1. Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
2. The Road To Arnhem by Donald R. Burgett
3. “Uncle Tom” Reed’s Memoir of the University of Georgia by T.W. Reed 1 month ago

While there is no lack of professional & kids books that typically make the daily read list, this goal is more around giving the brain something fun to digest more often. 1 month ago

10. The Secret of Lost Things by Sheridan Hay (4)

8. A Soft Place to Land by Susan Rebecca White (4)
This is a wonderful book written by a great storyteller. I really loved it with one exception. There is a quick paragraph about a kitten that disturbed me greatly because it was so unnecessary in the story. That extremely small section keeps me from giving this book a 5 on my scale and keeps me from recommending it to friends.

9. Japanese Women Don’t Get Old or Fat by Naomi Moriyama (5)
Loved it. Moriyama combines food, family history, and cultural information beautifully in an enjoyable and useful book. I have made a few of the recipes and loved them. Also, thanks to Ms Moriyama I have added Miso soup as an early morning snack with great results. 6 months ago

I need to catch up with my logging of books so here’s a short update of books read

3. Crazy ‘08 by Cait Murphy (5)
A great book for both baseball fans and history lovers.

4. Bicycle Diaries by David Byrne (5)
My newest crush. I adore this book. It lead me to his
journal.
I highly recommend you check out http://journal.davidbyrne.com/

5. The Amber Room by Steve Berry (3)
This one was highly recommended by a co-worker. I really wanted
to like this one better because Steve Berry lives in my home
stage of Georgia but I was left wanting a lot more. Too much
like a Hollywood movie.

6. Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie (4)
Murder mysteries are not my favorite genre but she’s one of the
masters. I have to admit that I was taken by surprise with the
ending. I won’t spoil it at all here. If you’re a mystery fan
I highly recommend checking out Agatha Christie’s work. 8 months ago
