Reading Resolutions

I was planning on making an unofficial resolution to read 52 books in 2010 - one a week. And if I had time, I would blog about the books as I read them.

Out of curiosity, I looked back at the books that I read in 2009 to see how many I read. After reviewing my online BookShelf and tallying them up, I discovered that I had actually read 60 books last year, so I'm thinking that 52 books is kind of a low resolution.
