On January 1st of 2011 I decided to jot down the titles of all the books I read as I went along throughout the year. I never did that before and I thought it would be fun to see how many, and what kinds of books I read in one year of my life. Now that the year is over I thought that I'd share the list with you, and if you are interested in any from the list, shoot me and email and will let you know if I recommend it or not. (One thing the list revealed to me was that I need to get back to some classics and that I have a love of Chelsea Handler! ha!)
