So why not a new blog? One of my resolutions for 2007 is to get back into reading for pleasure on a regular basis. Over the last two years, my reading has consisted mainly of textbooks and assigned readings for class, and it's time to change that! I have two semesters left of college, and then that's it. I hoping that by blogging my book list, it will keep me motivated.<br /><br />"Oh, magic hour, when a child first knows she can read printed words!"<br />— <em>A Tree Grows in Brooklyn</em>, 1943<br /><br />"To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark."<br />— Victor Hugo, <em>Les Miserables</em><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/738301700595013236-7894315218646195158?l=violachap.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Staceyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02773323177156384644noreply@blogger.com0
