As promised, my reading list for this year. Just as I was getting ready to post this, I realized that I had left off some books that I really want to try to read this year, as well as re-reading some of my favorites (Faulkner - swoon). I'm really excited about this list even though I'm not sure I actually have enough time to read all these. I had a list of 36 for 2017, which I didn't finish thanks to Anna Karenina (took me three months...), The Adventures of Kavalier and Clay (who writes this many pages??), and possibly the fact that I have many, many children. But, hey, here's to trying again this year!
