I'm going to be reading at least one book a month this year. I'll keep you updated here on my mini reviews if you're a reader and would like some ideas for new books to read!

January: 'Crank' by Ellen Hopkins
AMAZING book! I would reccomend this to any and everyone! It is written like a book of poems so it is very simple to read. It's about a young woman's downhill spiral when she becomes addicted to Crank. I finished it in two days! Couldn't put it down!

February: 'The Secret' by Rhonda Byrne
Ok, I sort of slacked big time on this AND cheated. :lol: There is a movie for the book that is exactly like it and after getting about 3/4 of the way through the book, I came across the movie and watched. BUT, I do plan on reading the book through also. Anyway, this is a must read for everyone! It is an excellent concept to apply to the way you live! I highly recommend this book to everyone!!! Especially those having a rough time in life and need anything to help!
Edit: I did finish this book. I didn't want to cheat and only watch the whole movie and not the entire book. I do want to go back and re-read and rewatch this a couple times throughout the year to kind of re-enforce what I'm learning. I think this next book is going to be an excellent follow up!

March: 'A New Earth' by Eckhart Tolle

That's great! I've been reading books sent to me by publishers and authors, then I give them away on my blog.
I just finished Bedtime stories by Trey Ellis.
The next book coming is Unpredictable by Eileen Cook.

<p>One a month is enough for the both of us. Thank you for saving me the trouble :lol:</p>

<p>I actually love reading books but finding the time these days is difficult. I have time at work but playing on my lap top gives the boss the impression that I'm actually doing something productive. Reading on the other hand, not so much. </p>

I have also read Burned by Ellen Hopkins (Grrrreat read!) and Wicked which in my opinion wasn't that great. I'll post more details when I remember how to edit this thing.
