Reading

With grad school finally wrapping wrapped up, I am ready to get back to my obsessive reading.  I miss being able to read for fun everyday instead of having my face planted in a book about WACCs and financial reporting.  I probably only read 50 books in 2009 which is abysmal.  When I was 21, I made a promise to myself to read every book on the 3 major Top 100 Lists by the time I was 30.  I’m more than halfway through {thanks to overlaps}, but I need to get going!
