Happy New Year 2010! My resolutionsHope you all had a safe and and and happy celebration. Now's the time to set some resolutions (besides losing those extra pounds, the most borrrrrring pledge in the world). Here are a few of mine for 2010. I resolve to:
-- read at least one book from each of the continents. I'll even try for Antarctica, though its literary heritage is somewhat spotty. That should ensure that the whole year isn't spent re-reading the Twilight series.
-- read one book by Nobel Prize winner Herta Muller, to see what all the fuss is about. (I whiffed on this last year; two books by Le Clezio are still in my TBR pile.)
-- read at least one unread classic. (Yes, Nancy, that may mean that I finally get to "Pride and Prejudice.")
-- read every book assigned by my book club -- before the meeting. (If you're in a book club, that's harder than it sounds.)
There, I feel better already.
