So many books.

[psyche29]

So I'm sitting here at work, trying to plow through all this STUFF, and come across a stickie that has the title and author of a book recommended to me by superbeffie. Then I realized that I really haven't gone through and updated my reading list in far too long.

So I've spent some of this lunch hour doing just that; I've deleted a few books here and there that I might have wanted to read at one time but no longer have an interest in, struck-through the ones I've completed since the last time I updated, added a couple that weren't on the list before (including Beth's recommendation), and then renumbered the list.

Several of these, I've checked out but didn't get a chance to read them before they were due...which is why they remain on the list even though I've had them in my possession before.

If I ever get to the point where I update this on a more regular basis, I'll make sure to clear the ones I've read off the list entirely. Right now, however, they serve as a reminder to myself of what I've read.

Now I just need to pay my library fines so I can go check out more books. It's only ten bucks, but I'm slow and lazy. *snerk*

I really enjoy looking at people's book lists. I am a book lover myself and we keep a reading list too. Your list gives me on ideas for structuring it better though... ^_^

We're also on Bookmooch and LibraryThing. Resources for book gathering and sharing plus organization that we could never live without now. Some people are obsessed with Facebook and Twitter, we're obsessed with those instead. ^_^

Thank you for sharing!
