About this blog

This blog is a collection of my thoughts about books and reading and reviews of books I've read. I'd love to hear your thoughts, too. Please share!

From October 2008-July 2009, I'm hosting the Really Old Classics Challenge.

I'm also hosting the quarterly Martel-Harper Challenge.

Further, as an ongoing personal challenge, I'm reading all the works on the How to Read and Why reading list compiled by Harold Bloom. I'd love for you to either join me in this challenge or to follow along with me as I try to learn to read well.
