Bookish Adventures

My goal this year is to read 25 books in 2012! Originally I wanted to follow the model of reading challenges I’d seen online and set the goal at 50 books for the year, but then I realized that meant reading one book per week and I know I can’t do that. So, with a more reasonable and achievable goal in mind, here we go!
