“Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinions of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.”–Katherine Mansfield (1888-1923)

The Reading List

There have been some updates to this list. I actually have a private reading list that includes these and others that total 69 books. Some of the others are classics and what I guess can be called "improvement" books. Please note that most of the books I read are fun and not necessarily full of intellect or drama. I like to be able to escape while reading. Also, you should know that a vast majority of these books came from here, cause that's what I like.

Wahoo book lists! I have about a million sitting on my shelf waiting to be read right now. I sometimes suffer from purchasing more books than I can read at one time. :-)
