Like my post Books Read 2006, this page will be updated as I continue to read and finish books. Last year I didn't quite reach my goal of 60 books (made it to #53) but perhaps I'll reach my target in 2007...and I figured a picture of Nietzsche would bring me luck. LOL.

How do you find so much time to read? I can never complete so many books in one year!
How? 3 main things...
1) Reading takes the place of social activity,
2) it's one of my favourite things to do, so I tend to make alot of time for it, and
3) I read fast LOL
Doesn't come as a complete surprise but 53 :o , Fuck.. I Envy the pleasure of it..LOL.
yes, am gonna keep a count on mine this year, atleast to keep track of what's shaping my conscience,i think its a great thought..

I've been wanting to read book #35. Is it good?
And I hate Paulo Coelho.
Miao...
how can you hate Coelho? to each his own, I suppose... :)
#35 is excellent! You might also enjoy #9 and #22. Two other "must-reads" on the subject are:
-Philosophies of Love edited by David Norton and Mary Kille
...and most especially...
