southernbohemian's "2008 Reading List"

Add to my lists | Print this list

Although I didn’t finish as many as I hoped, last year I made a similar list and ended up reading a lot of previously unread books that I had around the house as opposed to buying new (or new to me) books to add to the pile. So I’m trying it again this year. I added more of my non-fiction books to the list because I was a real slacker when it came to reading them last year.
