mission statement

This year I am making a concerted effort to read as many books as I can get my hands on. So far I've read:

Lullaby, Chuck Palahnuik
and
Strong Motion, Jonathan Franzen


books i'm working on:

Black Maria (poems), Kevin Young
and
Just Above My Head, James Baldwin

I will give a brief critique on each book. I hope that someone reads this blog and finds something they've read and have comments about or was thinking about reading; this blog serving as a reminder to go pick it up.
Let the reading begin...
