2009-03-26T17:03:00.000-07:00

I totally stole this list from 3M. I let her do the hard work, then I just copy and paste - she's such a good friend to let me mooch from here. I like this idea, keeping track of the NY Times recommended books for the year. Some have been good, some not so good. I've bolded the ones I've already read, I've italicized the books I own and am waiting to read, and the little star* beside the ones that I am interested in, some day. Here's the link to the most recent list, and past years.
