TBR 2008

I just learned about the TBR (To Be Read) Challenge site a few days ago and thought it would be a nice thing to pick up for the year even though its already April. Pretty much its a public challenge to make progress by naming 12 books to knock off one’s to be read pile in the year to come, with the option of also choosing alternative books. Sure I’m off to a slow start but that will just make it more of a challenge and I’m sure I can handle the increased pace.
