New Years Resolutions
Guest blogging again. I have 20 New Year's Resolutions.
I think the coolest one is that I have decided to read all the Hugo Award Winners since 1953.
The strikethroughs without dates mean I have already read the book. CURRENTLY READING is self explanatory. Strikethough and dates means I finished the book in 2009.
