I've often thought it might be interesting to track the books I read over the course of a year. Never actually done it, partly because of laziness and partly because it's a little embarrassing to admit how much brain candy I consume. I think that's part of the balance in being an English teacher, though--got to have something to offset all the Very Serious Literature.
I'm probably not going to say much about the books themselves (I told you I was lazy), though I'm always happy to discuss any book in the comments. My plan is to list the books I've read for pleasure first and then the books I'm teaching and/or referencing for school second.

So there you have it! I think that's everything I've read so far.
I just posted a new blog entry over at my teaching site, by the way: Of Boogers and Books. Stop on by, if you'd like.
