Another one of my goals for 2012 is for me to read more. While that looks nice when written in my huge list of goals, I realize that I actually have to do something about it. So… what nicer incentive could there be than a reading challenge where I can win more books through the year?
My dusty bookshelf basically consists of three categories:
Books languishing on my virtual bookshelf (in order as they are on my Kindle app):
Persona by Amy Lunderman
Roughing It by Mark Twain
Lust by Mike Wells
Cassastar by Alex J. Cavanaugh (This one I feel really bad about. Started reading it in August, but my Economics got in the way. Now will be a good time for me to get it off my reading shelf on Goodreads.)
Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Le Roux
Hollywood Secrets by Emma Halliday
Hollywood Scandals by Emma Halliday
A Razor Wrapped in Silk by R.N. Morris (Another one that’s killing me. It was the first book I ever won since I started blogging. In fact, it’s the reason why I got a Kindle App for my computer. And I haven’t touched it.)
Don’t Get Mad, Get Even by J.L. Campbell
In Her Name: Empire by Michael R. Hicks
Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw
The Devil to Pay by Maria Zannini
Tribute by J.R. Pearse Nelson
Vessel by J.R. Pearse Nelson
Books I borrowed from the library by alphabet (part of last years decision to expand my horizons):
Nightfall by Isaac Asimov and Robert Silverberg
Eve’s Daughters by Lynn Austin
The Scarlet Lion by Elizabeth Chadwick
Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie
Harlequin by Bernard Cornwell
Cruel and Unusual by Patricia Cornwell
(I did read B. Just kept procrastinating on the others)
Books I’ve been meaning to read but didn’t get around too (this one might get more than a few additions yet):
Feast of the Uninvited by P.G. Du Plessis
Shakespeare
Jane Austen
George R.R. Martin
Wow. That’s one grungy bookshelf. I better start working on it ASAP. Good thing I have Jane Austen January to knock four books from my list…
