Intern52's "Books I still need to read"

Add to my lists | Print this list

In December 2010, I was visiting my in-laws for the holidays. My mother-in-law shared with me her new year’s resolution. Ever year I always half-heartedly make up a new year’s resolution and it always turns out to be the same thing: eat better, exercise, save money, etc.

This year I want to do something entirely different. In addition to make it to work at 9am instead of 9:15am, I also included that I would read 20-30 books by the years end. So far, I have read 3 books as of February 17, 2010. As far as making it to work on time, I might have shaved off 3-5 min. It is still a work in progress.
