Conorpants's "Reading/Viewing list 2008"In 2007 I tried to read a book for every week. It didn’t work out so well. This year I’m going to try to do the same – except that I’m going to try and read an average of one challenging book every two weeks. The rest can be fantasy garbage or whatever – so long as I’m reading. Also, I’ve collected some films off my other lists. |
