Oops, long time no update. Apparently given myself a lesser goal just gave me more of an excuse to slack. I'm gotten pretty much NOTHING accomplished in reading. Yes I have finished books, but I've been lazy about updating here. See books below, however note that I'm still 5% behind for the year (that's 5 books)

A Kiss Remembered (1.11.12 - one of the worst books I've ever read -- however that looks like Billy Zane on the cover)#6. James Patterson -
Daniel X, Vol. 1 (1.20.12 - I read it by flashlight -- what else do you do when your power is out for 2 days!?)#7. James Patterson -
Run for Your Life (1.24.12 - I supposed I should go back and read the first in the series)#8. Marie Lu - Legend

I didn't meet my goal of 123 last year (missed it by 5).Usually I set my goal to be 1 more than the year before, but I want reading to be fun again. That goal last year made it a chore and then I ended the year disappointed. So this year, I'm going for the more realistic goal of 100. I did 122 in 2010, and 118 in 2011, so I should at least hit 114 for 2012. Heck, but the time I'm 60, I'll be lucky to be clearing a dozen! Wish me luck for the year!
It's been awhile since I've posted anything. I'm not going to make my 123 goal for the year (unless I can get through 10 books in the next 4 days - fat chance), but once I get a chance I will update this with books 93-113. As you can imagine is a lot of "In Death", vampire and YA books. :)
