My Christmas gift from Hubs was a Kindle Fire. I denied wanting one many times in the weeks preceding Christmas; then I lingered with it a bit longer than normal at the stores, or maybe asked one too many questions about it during the commercials, then insisted that I was quite okay with my Sony Reader PRS-505. Perhaps I protested too much.
I decided that with so many formats in which to digitally receive books, I ought to make good use and set a reading goal. It is standard for me to go through reading spurts, and go long months without reading anything. This year, I'd like to barrel through 100 books. My deft math skills tell me that that comes out to about one book every 3.5 days. Which means I'm almost already behind.
I had a blast with it during my Christmas vacation. I finally read each of Stephanie Perkins' books, fabulous, as if there'd be any other reaction; Liz Reinhardt's newest one Forgiving Trinity, which was different from her others, but still great.
I've loaded it with a ton of others, and now have started Monica Leonelle's Silver Smoke. I anticipate this being the first book I finish reading in 2012. I also anticipate sharing reviews of some of these.
What else is anyone excited to read in 2012? Any good recommendations I should add to my list?
