Follow Along

I've added a little section in the lower right column that will give the details of my summer reading progress. I have a list of books I'd like to finish before school starts up again, and most of them are part of the Western Canon that I haven't gotten around to reading yet. I'll only put the ones in the "Batter's Box" that I actually have a copy of and actually intend to start reading in the next week or two (or three if I'm on something particularly lengthy and tedious).

I don't guarantee that the occasional modern "chick-lit" novel won't find its way onto the list as the mood appears, but I can pretty well assure you that no Harlequin romance novels will be there.

I probably won't blog much (if at all) about the books, unless there is some encouragement in that direction.

UPDATE: I put a little tagboard below the list, which can function as a sort of open comments area. I'd be curious to have any recommendations, as well. If you could recommend one book to the world, which would it be?

Is this going to be like Oprah's book club?
