So Many Books, So Little Time: A Year of Passionate Reading by Sara Nelson

3.0

Sara, obviously we need to meet, talk about our favorite books, go out to lunch, continue talking about books, and end the day by walking over to our favorite bookstore or library. Sara, is a "readaholic". Boy, can I relate--books have completely taken over my house. They spill out of the bookcases, they are piled under tables, they sit on top of the tables, they are stored in bags, they are everywhere. Sara decided to tackle this obsession with reading head on and one year her New Year's plan was a to read a book a week for the next year. She made a list, but, as readaholics will do, was constantly attracted to some new book, or decided to read a book she was suppose to read in college and didn't, or become intrigued in a title recommended by a friend. And better yet, she writes about each of the books that she read that year and tried to match "the reading experience with the personal one and watching where they intersect--or don't." And I was delighted to see the lists at the end of the book--books that she intended to read, books that she actually read, and books on her must-read list. I've plucked several titles from each. Recommended for anyone who can't imagine a day without some reading time.
