A New Year 2012

My really good friend Heather told me her New Years resolution was to read one new book a week. I really liked her idea so I'm attempting to read at least a few new books a month. So far for 2012 I have read:

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen

War Horse by Michael Morpurgo

First Date by Krista McGree


Being as today is January 30th, I guess I accomplished Heathers goal of reading one new book a week. Granted I didn't start each new book and read it during the week...  I read War Horse yesterday and First Date today, but still. I read four books for the four months of January. Before I go to bed tonight I'm starting Suicide Blonde by Darcey Steinke. I've had this book for awhile and am finally getting the oportunity to read it. The first line of the book is, "Was it the Bourbon  or the dye fumes that made the pink walls quiver like vaginal lips?"  What book could suck that starts out with that first line! Needless to say I'm excited to get started. Maybe I'll wait until Wednesday so I can count this as one for February.....or maybe I'll start it tonight and then count it towards February.
