Umm, I seem to have lost a couple of months.

Seriously!  Why am I already in the third month of 2012?  I feel like New Years Eve was yesterday.  Or at the most, a day before that.

I had planned to catch up on all my 2011 book blogging before 2011 came to a close.  I have a few that I started months ago and just never finished or posted.  I am such a procrastinator!

I thought about closing my Reading Room Blog and going back to just keeping a notebook to track my reading.  But I kind of like being able to easily scroll back through books - rather than having to try and decipher my messy writing while flicking pages in a note book.

So I am going to try again in earnest this year.  First I am going to catch up on 2011 books, and I am going to cheat by "dating" them all 31/12/11 so that they show up as part of my 2011 reading.  I think some of the entries will probably be just the title, cover pic and a quote so that I can just "get it done".

And then I am going to try and keep up a bit better in 2012.

Also, while I am both berating and trying to motivate my self, why haven't I set any goals for 2012 yet?  No wonder the year is sliding by in a haze of stagnation and un-acheivement (no it's not a real word but it is exactly what I mean).  I am going to set some reading goals for this year and record them here to try and keep myself accountable and on track.

2012 reading goals:
20 Fiction
12 Non-Fiction
Blog all of them
Make a list of wish-list reads (actually this will be an exercise in collating as I have a few of these scribbled lists around the place)

Done!  I mean goals done.  That was the easy part.

Now to catch up on entries for the books I read in 2011
