Good lookin out.Thanks!
I actually gave back my books in the library and looked for the e-book to read on my Kindle. Go to overdrive.com and look for your library. They have tons of books and you can recommend that they get other books in e-book format.

Anyways i'm in the middle of the second book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George RR Martin and I started a new book by Amy Tan called the Hundred Secret Senses. I'll just finish up these two and start mahh reading again.

Btw do you count romance novels? I go through them like crazy cause I like their lightness and nothing serious
Yup, romance novels count!

Since I'm getting started late, I will begin on 2/1. I will update on the mid February mark. This is going to be fun!! Last year I was reading 2-3 books a month for about 6 months and then I just stopped...so, glad to get back into swing of it, and it will help to have the encouragement!

I just completed my 5th book of the year. It was by John Hope Franklin, Mirror to America. It was a great read. If any of you likes history, this might be a great one to try.

I FINALLY got to the library. I picked up a random book called The Stupidest Angel and so far, it's off to a slow start.

So I got done with one of the books The Hundred Secret Senses.. I loved it, i loved the stories and I loved the personality of Kwan. However, I am hesitant to recommend because my mother said the book can gwaan.. as in its just ok, while i really like it. Different tastes I guess

I'm starting to read the autobiography of Nelson Mandela. It's huge but I've read Harry Potter books so I'm not too worried. I'm excited to read it though, I've heard it's life changing.

How is everyone else doing with their reads?

I'm in. I had not seen this but I always keep track of my books. So far this year I have read 9 books. Right now I'm reading The Unburdened Heart. It's a great book on forgiveness!!!!
