It it is nearing the end of the year and I always like to look back at the year and what books I have read.   I have kept a running list of the books I have read since 2003.   Before that I have a few books listed each year.  Some years I didn’t even track.    So since I started the list back in June of 98, I have read 131 books.   I wonder how many years until I reach 1000!  

In 2003 – Read 30 books
In 2004 – Read 20 Books
In 2005 – I have read 47 books.   I will probably finish one more before the end of the year.
