100 and The Cybils

Well, I made my 100 books this year and have been thinking about my top ten. I didn't include the books I read for the Cybil's but I will be talking about them within this month. I'm going to spend this week looking at old posts and setting goals for the new year. I know my blogging goal will be to read less and review more. Right now I'm thinking one fiction and one non-fiction choice per month.

The Cybils has really opened my eyes to some great non-fiction out there. A few I enjoyed: I am Scout by Charles Shields about Harper Lee, The Trouble Begins at 8 by Sid Fleischman about Mark Twain, Snow Falling in Spring by Moying Li about her childhood, Yes We Can by Garen Thomas about Barack Obama, The Year We Disappeared by Cylin and John Busby about John Busby's attempted murder, and other great books. There were so many good books, it was truly hard to choose. I look forward to finding out the final selections from the judges!
