Books Don’t Read Themselves, Especially the Boring Ones

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

Did you know that books don’t read themselves? I’ve been staring at my Goodreads list. And would you believe that staring at it hasn’t accomplished the finishing of any of the books that I’m currently reading? Apparently February isn’t going to yield a six book finish. Alas, I keep reading.
