Reading Resolution

It's officially 2010 (I know, Capt. Obvious here) and one of my goals is to be more consistent in my reading. I start school in just about three weeks, so scholastic reading is upon me inevitably. My scripture reading needs work, as does my recreational reading.

My reading resolutions are these:
  1. Read my scriptures daily, even if it's just one verse.
  2. Keep up on all required textbook reading, no matter how mundane and tedious it may get.
  3. Always be reading a recreational book to entertain my love for reading and keep me from associating it with being a required chore.
My book list will be ever growing (I hope), but for starters, these are D's Reads to get me started in 2010 in no particular order:
  • The Piano Teacher
  • Man's Search for Meaning
  • A Thousand Splendid Suns
  • Muqtada
  • The Brain that Changes Itself
  • Sway
  • Outliers
  • The Lost Symbol
  • Have a Little Faith
  • Justice: what's the right thing to do
  • What the Dog Saw
  • Freakonomics
  • Superfreakonomics
  • Half the Sky
  • My Sister's Keeper
  • Eat, Love, Pray
  • The Time Traveler's Wife
  • Hearing the Voice of the Lord
  • The Art of Racing in the Rain
  • Living Life as a Thank You
  • Drive
  • 29 Gifts
  • Sonata for Miriam
  • The Hunger Games
  • The Book of Mormon (all year long)
In my widgets section of the blog will be what book I'm currently reading if you click on it, you can see my review of the books I have completed as well as what book is up next! The blog is www.DustOffDBookshelf.BlogSpot.com.

Resolution Ready,
D
