Well, the new 2007 is already here! Time to make a recapitulation of the reading 2006!
2006 wasn`t the best reading year for me, although I did a lot of reading during the summer and managed to finish 16 books in 40 days but after that I considerably slowed the pace and finished the year with 65 books- 12 books less than in 2005.
I discovered some nice books this year and of course, I have a top ten:
"Kafka On The Shore" by Haruki Murakami
Inkheart" by Cornelia Funke
"The Little Golden Calf" by Ilf and Petrov "
Africa Trek: 14 000 km on foot" by Alexandre and Sonia Poussin
"You Are Not Like Other Mothers" by Angelica Schobsdorff
Moon Palace" by Paul Auster
"The Queen`s Fool" by Philippa Gregory
"The Names of Things" by Susan Brind Morrow
"Iron&Silk" by Mark Salzman
"History of Reading" by Alberto Manguel
Besides, I re-read three of my most favorite books- "Master and Margarita" by Bulgakov, "Lila" by Persig, and "My Name Is Red" by Orhan Pamuk.
I did more wild releases in 2006 but would not say I diminished the TBR mountain as much as I would like to....
For 2007, my goals would be to try to reach 100 books; to participate more in BCUK Yahoo group, to write my Bookcrossing Newsletter more often (I`m sending it from my Bulgarian BC site), to try to improve my German, to maintain the first Bookcrossing Zone in Sofia...and etc....
