And have eased up on my ...I resemble those remarks! And have eased up on my "vows" so told myself I would read 15 shelf sitters and could only buy 12 books this year. No idea about library books, though. And I think I'm going to try to stick to no online reading challenges this year. <br /><br />I really enjoyed Far from the Madding Crowd esp. as it related to the Hunger Games trilogy, which I'd recently finished. I LOVED Suitable Boy and begrudged leaving its world and characters, but regretted the time I spent reading Shadow Country and was happy to leave Florida and its characters.Girl Detectivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348689834879722062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861486.post-66248182727198767032011-01-03T09:25:12.681-05:002011-01-03T09:25:12.681-05:00I'm up for the Western challenge as well!

Every year I make and break the same resolutions about my reading habits. This year I'm trying to take it slowly by making one resolution a month to change a bad reading habit I've got into. If at the end of the month I've succeeded then I can start with a new one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861486.post-10952020889242219342011-01-01T20:47:34.324-05:002011-01-01T20:47:34.324-05:00Happy New Year!
