I’m on a mission to read 100 books before the year is over. I’m hoping that about a quarter of that amount will come from my own bookshelf of unread books…but it doesn’t seem very likely. I’m also delving through this list of 1001 books to read before you die from this website:

Good luck in your mission to read 100 books before this year’s end.
Make sure, though, you don’t include tomes like “War and Peace” in your list!!!
While it’s difficult to read 2 books a week, which 100 a year would mean, setting such a task makes us realize how much time most of us spend watching TV or in front of the computer – time we might more enlighteningly spend reading.
Reading on trains, buses, and while waiting in queues will also make your books fly by quicker.
Have fun.
