As of January First, Two Thousand and Ten, we have made a pledge. Individually and collectively. We do so promise to only read the books we have stacked up in our homes. For me, that's about ninety books. For Meredith, it's about thirty. For Rachel, it's about sixty. And for Caren, somewhere in the middle.
This is a commitment on our parts. Sworn to each other. On the honor system. We are all book addicts so the hardest part won't be in reading all the novels. The hardest part will be not having the luxury of buying new books or checking them out from the library. No more hours of wandering through Barnes & Noble or Half Price books (unless one of us has great willpower...which I doubt!).
And to really put pressure on the commitment, each participant is to log in, write a post that contains the review of the latest book read. I'm hoping this little blog takes off and some people find it interesting enough to follow. I admit I know I'll be doing most of the writing but who knows? We all read so much that I know each of us has a good author in us as well.
Stay tuned.
