I've always loved to read, but this year I can't seem to get enough. Here are the books I've read so far this year (in no particular order). After I finish the one I've got, I'll have finished everything in the house that I would find interesting. I've got some gift cards to Borders, so if you have any suggestions (based on what you can see that I like below) I'd love to hear them!

Just for clarification, Kristin assures me that I was not, in fact, the inspiration for her most recent selection.
If you liked Same Kind of Different as Me (or are inclined to like memoirs) then I would highly recommend "The Glass Castle" and "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn." I just read both and couldn't put them down!
Wow, you are awesome. Look at that long list!!!!
