I get them onto the right shelf??? (combining goals here…)
and I’m trying to keep up with my son’s reading…
I have a ton that I have never touched (thanks BC). I need to go through them and get rid of the ones that aren’t any good

I would be very excited to have even a clue about how many of the books I have read, haven’t read, or have but want to read again!
Middlemarch
Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
recommended by Barbara Kingsolver in her collection of essays, ‘Small Wonder.’ – which is a book-crossing book i found in the wild today at the seattle muni courthouse. i had to search a vacant desk to find it – thankfully the guard was about 50 feet away and seemed occupied.
ps. and to help me in this goal, i’m going to take a lesson from Kingsolver, and say if a novel doesn’t begin to reach me in 30 pages – out with it!
“As long as we are emotionally protective, our breathing can not be free.”
Kristin Linklater, Freeing the Natural Voice, 1976
The previous list is complete. I read ‘Death in Venice’ in Italy, which was something. Also read ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower.’
X Notes From Underground – Dostoyevsky
X The Balcony – Genet
Paradise Lost – Milton
An Actor Prepares – Stanislavsky
A Director Prepares – Bogart, Ann
Self Relaince – Emerson
After this, I’ll read something funny.
This is not actually the booklist, but I guess I could post that up too.
I AM tired of looking at the pretty spines of all my books. So I made a booklist for 2006! 23 books. First one: Dharma Bums by Kerouac.
I should come back when I’m not trying to avoid doing my school work…
