to read list

I’ve review a few movies on here, with plans for more.

But in my soul I am a literature person. So in 2010, I’m going to read/write a review for a book twice a month. 24 books! goals! I love goals, no matter how unattainable they may be.

I’ve come up with a preliminary list, welcome to suggestions. These are all books that I’ve never read, or want a second look at for a different perspective.
