Introduction

I read somewhere about a a challenge: read one  book every week for  a year and write a review on it. Lately, I've fell out of the habit of regular reading. Even if I do start a book, it seems to take me forever to finish. First college got in the way and sapped my will to read for fun, and now work seems to be doing the same thing. This will give me a goal and accountability. I'll be able to read some of the books I've bought and have been putting off reading

Another habit of mine that has suffered is my blog writing. I never seem to have enough ideas. I've avoided starting a book blog because they are so common, I suspected no one would bother with a new one. While that may still be true, this blog is mostly for my own benefit rather than anyone else's, so it doesn't bother me.

A few rules in case you want to try this as well: No reading ahead; you can't read to books in one week. I won't lie, I'll probably break this rule on occasion. Also, you can't read a book that is exclusively available as an ebook.

For everyone who plans to do this as well, good luck.
