Challenge – Read 100 Books in 2011

I have signed up for Book Chick City’s 100 Book Challenge for this year. Hopefully will keep better track of what I manage to read this year. I am reserving the right to reread old favorites once this year. So, since I read 35 or so books last year, and have compiled a few favorites – with new books being published in that series – I plan to reread the previous books and refresh my mind. I also want to write a small review on each book or an overall series.
