52 Books
I was inspired at Dawn Houser's blog to join her in her goal of reading one book a week. I love to read anyway, but it would be so fun to have a little community of bloggers who are trying to read 52 books this year. If anyone's interested in joining in, I think I'll set up a blog where everyone can join in and post the list of books they've read--it'll be a great way to share reading lists. I've made a button, now I'll go set up a blog. Leave a note in the comments section if you want to join in!

omG. i made a button last month & have to do a post just for my list (which i don't have yet) to have something to link it to.
PS, your blog has changed!!!!! I like it that way. It looks pure.:)
I would love to join the 52 books project - Actually I read much more then that in a year - or at least I think I do - I've read two, or is it three?, already this week. Fun paperbacks I can go through quickly - other more serious literature I spend more time with. Will be interesting to see how many.
Well I'm a reader, but I'm not sure I can do one a week; however, I'd love to join in and list the ones I do manage to get through - I just ordered 6 new books and am almost finished the one I'm reading now (mostly consigned to before I go to sleep at night these days - unless it's amazing, Like 1000 Suns.)
btw - I tried scanning my jewelry like you suggested - the jewelry looks great but the background not so much - I left the top down and then tried it with a white page over the jewelry with top down and it's all shadowy. Suggestions? Because I really really think the idea is great...I just need to get it all together.
A book a week? I might have been able to do that before I started quilting sewing collaging sketching art classes blogging emailing grandparenting...now I am lucky if I can get through an How- to art book in several weeks time; a novel or non fiction work at night at bed time over several weeks...but I too wouldn't mind being in the group as a slow reader...to see the lists and to add to them in my snail paced way. Maybe I'll read thirty in a year?
I like the look.
If you're planning on doing that much reading check out Swaptree.

Naturally I'd love to swap with you!
I'd also love to participate in this!
I'd like to participate in the 52 books group. Great idea.
