We've had them for so many years, we can't stop now!
This year, my challenge is going to be:
End the year with FEWER books on my "to-be-read" list than I started with!
Too often, even if I go through every book that was on it at the beginning of the year, I've found so many others I want to read that the list ends up longer anyhow.
This year, I'm determined to whittle it down! From.... uh.... actually.... I need to count, if I want to do this, huh?
Er.
Excuse me. I need to go total up some titles....
