and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skill I want.
And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones
and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life.
And I am horribly limited. - Sylvia Plath

Books I've read before 2011
I've decided to list a good number of books I have read. I'm positive I've read more than this but the books or the authors have just slipped my mind (hate when that happens! maybe i should eat more blueberries..hmm..). There's really no point to this, except for maybe my own amusement. Feel free to ask for a review on anything I have listed. (Books are in no specific order)
My 2011 Book Challenges
Good day, everyone! Since the new year is about to start off, I thought I'd clue you guys in on the 2 challenges I will be participating in. Not only will I be participating in these challenges but I will also be keeping track and reviewing each book on this blog! I don't have a New Year's "resolution" but this is more like my New Year's "goal". I recommend everyone to take a part in these challenges! Hobey Ho, my fellow adventurers!
