"There Is No Frigate Like A Book"
Emily Dickinson

There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,
Nor any coursers like a page
Of prancing poetry.
This traverse may the poorest take
Without oppress of toll;
How frugal is the chariot
That bears a human soul!

One of my New Years resolutions is to read 60 books in a year. Or really as many as I can, I'm just shooting high. If I get through 3/4 of these I'll be amazed and pleased.

Crossed out titles are books I have finished reading. Starred are the ones I really want to get done this year.

It's very possible that I'll end up changing this list as new books are published. This is just to help me remember which books I'm interested in.
