After I finish reading the unthinkable (sorry Natalie (Gurr) I gave in, I am actually doing it), I will start on my 2009 reading list, in addition to the book club I have with my best friend, Natalie, and the Relief Society book club I just volunteered to be in charge of in my latest Enrichment meeting - ahh! Hopefully I am not setting myself up for failure! What a lot of people don't understand is what an incredibly slow reader I am; they think because I like, nay, love to read that it means I am good at it. But now that it's posted on my blog, I'll have more motivation to keep up with my personal reading list for the year. Wish me luck!

Good thing some of those are short...thats great though. It would be unrealistic for me. I think I'm going for 12 plus D&C and a few audio books. Plus homeschooling books. I keep trying classics but am constantly pulled in by junk. I'm reading the Innocent Man by Grisham. I'm such a sucker. I couldn't fix my link...Don't know whats going on. See Ya!!
