Books – 2011

For my 2010 list, please see here.

Last year I managed to get through 28 books. I was aiming for 50. This year I think I’ll keep it to a more realistic 30.
Instead of linking to Amazon (cos you all know how to Google right?) I’m going to link to the book’s GoodReads page so you can see review from people who have actually read the book!

25 down, 5 to go! I might have to up my challenge!

  1. Wow… that’s a spirit. I have many new books (some of them are gifts ;)), so I think I have to spare special time for reading. Must saya g’bye for a while to my TV ;)

    • I love reading. I prefer it to TV usually! I’ve just finished my latest book, I must update this page and find a new one to read.

  2. lol…at first glance I thought your post said “I plan to release 50 books this year”! I thought “bloody hell, how on earth is she planning to do *that*!?”

  3. I imagine we can add ‘Jamie Oliver’s 30 Minute Meals’ to this now… :)
