I’ll be reading 52 books this year and doing a short review. How short? Ten words or less. The books will be collected at the nice, neat little tab at the top of this site. Oh yes.
The first book of 2010 is Rape: A Love Story by Joyce Carol Oates. The review?
Kicks you in the gut. Realistic, powerful, strangely beautiful.
And we’re off! Rock on, 2010!

What a brilliant idea! Not surprising considering its source. 😉
I wish I could read 52 books. I intend, however, to read 52 stories a week, at least!

Rape? A Love Story? Who would have thought? Huh. Interesting.
Nisa-I figure it’ll force me to prioritize reading. I’m letting the important things go in lieu of…well, other important things. Also, the review is super short because who really cares what I have to say? 😉
Ken-Yeah, I’ll be doing that, too!
Simon-Definitely gritty, but it’s a quick read and I’d read it again.
wow! what a great idea… will be looking forward to your weekly book reviews!
Cool idea…I’m sort of doing the same thing…a book a week…goal is 50. Good luck with the challenge…and all your writing too. Remember Life of Pi for your list. Love, Jenn
