Book Backlog-Shedding Time!

I have made a goal to stop buying new books to read (recreational ones) until I cut down on my backlog. I've made a list, it's too huge to show here... it's about in the 100-plus range here. So, I'm going to try two goals:

Read 21 books before my birthday. Y'know, when it's my birthday, I can go buy more books! (Kidding, just want to see if I can do it)

Do this NaNoReMo thing again.
I got the idea from the delightful blogger of Bookshelves of Doom, who got the idea from defective yeti. Here, read defective yeti's entry about NaNoReMo and learn how you can do it! (Special thanks to Leila [Bookshelves of Doom] and Matthew [defective yeti] at their respected blogs for this wonderful idea)

I did NaNoReMo last year and read Wilkie Collins' "The Woman in White", which I started on November 5th and finished on the 27th. Keep in mind, the novel was looonng. Victorian, lots-o-description, big novel. Despite that, it was great.

Until then, I leave you (yet again) listening to Steve Miller Band.

Regards,
Lindsey
