one hundred

starting a blog from scratch can be a daunting task, especially if one wants to be followed.  so what i did was google and google for existing blogs that shared my interests.  that is, reviews of books, films and any whatnots that i deem interesting.  well that is a very broad range of subjects indeed.  but during one of these "quests" i chanced upon a book blog that got me really really interested.

now, i've always loved books. but before, i lived in a province that gave me limited access to the books that i really wanted to read.  in fact, i used to find myself reading through my grandfather's stash of outdated novels about cowboys and indians set in prairies and fields that were totally uninteresting for me.  but then, there were times that i could grab on some book that i cherished each second of reading.  books lent to me by friends and relative who had ways of getting them.

the situation changed when i moved to the "big" city last year.  since then, i have accumulated titles and titles of the books that set my mind on fire.  devouring each chapter and pages like wild fire.  

the start of the year, i promised my self to read the most number i have within a year.  lo and behold, a challenge has presented itself through this 100 Books in a Year 2011 hosted by Book Chick City.  

nope, i'm not a chick.  but i am a reader.  so from now on, i'll count and tally all the books that i have read since january of the current year and show the girls out there that yeah, we read too!

i accept the challenge and happy reading to all of us!
