I have a plan to recommit myself to reading (instead of watching endless reruns of the Bravo Housewives franchises): finish a new book every 2 weeks. I’ve started a table to track the books, and will attempt to update my progress here as I go. In addition to tracking, I’ll blog my reactions to the books as well.

Currently Reading:
The Lonely Polygamist, Brady Udall

On Deck for the 2013 Reading Plan:
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Carson McCullers
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, Mark Haddon
