raquel's "2007 Reading List"

I intend to read 50 books this year and actually document them. No more getting to the end of the year and trying to remember all the books I’ve consumed. I think 50 books is a huge number but with audiobooks and the fact that some books are so good I consume them in a day, I think I am up to the challenge.

As of March 15, I have updated my list with the the first 25 books I need to have read by the time the new Harry Potter book is released. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be book number 26 and will more or less mark the halfway point of my book reading challenge. I’ve got a lot of reading ahead of me.

Looks like this will be the year of Stephen King and catching up on some Classics long overdue on my "to be read" lists.
