books i have read













Home | updates | about me | stories | poetry | tidbits | cliques | links





well, i thought i had better explain this one a little bit. well, i made a goal for 2001 to read 100 books. of course, i didn't finish it, but i came close (93). and here's the list since ninth grade (i actually have been keeping track since seventh or sixth grade, but i haven't computerized those lists) see? this is what i do in my spare time! haha... not really. you'd be surprised how little time it takes to write down a book and author's name. i just like to keep track of what i've read and stuff. i don't know why. but, i betcha it would be a hell'va lot longer if i were lini! hehe...j/k lini! well, anyways... disregard the stars and stuff. their just so i can keep track of numbers and stuff. (like, i don't just start at one everytime i go from end of school year to summer or from year to year... so i use two sets of numbers... and they switch... it takes me a minute to figure it out. but i'm sure you won't care enough to even realize there are two sets of numbers!) hehe... beans and coke, zoe
