The challenge

How many books would you read in a year?

Fifty? A hundred?

I found a book called "1001 books to read before you die" the other day, and wondered just how many years it would take to read that many books. I've no idea, but I'm going to try to find out.

So I've set myself a challenge of recording every book I read this year on this blog, and I'll try to write a short review as well. The rules are, they have to be proper books, lets say at least fifty pages long. I will probably stick to novels but books of short stories are allowed, and so is non-fiction (as long as it's not something called "How to renovate your house in 30 days" or similar). It's got to make you think. Or laugh, cry, be transported.

So here goes... it's two weeks in and I'm four books down so I'd better get cracking!
