Books Read 2012


  • Twenty-five books this year, not too shabby. My friend Amin once recommended that I read the complete works of some author. He recommended Graham Greene, I considered Philip Roth, but as a first endeavor, I've gone with Madeline L'Engle. I'd read her "Time Series" when I was younger (and many times since), but I had no idea how much she'd written. I think I'm about halfway finished. The first book in the Crosswicks Journals, A Circle of Quiet, has been the highlight I think.
