  A retro-active resolution
It just occurred to me, reading Defective Yeti's post about reading lists, that I have sort of developed my own method for choosing what to read:
  1. Get recommendation from friend, random interw3b person or site or "Top X Best Books of Some Form" list.
  2. Add to Amazon Wish List
  3. Either:
    • Get book given as gift, or
    • Buy book in fit of impulse purchasing
  4. Read
With that in mind, since the beginning of the year, I've managed to polish off a few of these books, and I think I could conceivably get the all by the end of the year. (Provided, of course, I can refrain from adding new ones, which I most certainly can't, so some discretion may be needed.) In short, it means going through about 100 books before September. (I'm not naive enough to think I'll have any sort of free time once school starts.) Could I do it? Possibly. Will I? Probably not. That's why I'm categorizing the decision as a retro-active New Year's resolution - nobody ever keeps those silly things anyways.
