Unread Library


I’m playing along with Julie at Pancakes and French Fries (who I hate for making me do this).

When this project started in summer of 2010, the pledge was to read all the books I owned before buying any new books. I'm actually pretty impressed that I lasted for about nine-ish months without buying a book.

I wrote reviews of each of the books I read in my Unread Library and found out that I like writing reviews. So even though I've failed at reading all the books on my list, I'm going to leave it up...and add new books as they're added to the library.
