I finished my first book of 2008 yesterday

1. Second Glande by Jodi Picoult (432)

I too have my doubts abot having a lot of time to read because of school. But this year, I think I'll add school books to my list as well...

Well, I didn't make my goal of 50 but I read 45 books in 2007. I'm happy with that.

Only one for 2008 so far:

1. The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox by Maggie O'Farrell
