Goals

Here's the deal. I decided last year that I was going to take on the challenge of reading the 100 greatest novels of all time by the time I am 30. I love to read and since getting a Kindle for Christmas, I am on a roll. The problem with reading the 100 greatest novels of all time is there is more than one list out there. I thought I had decided on one but I changed my mind after finding this list. This is the "Modern Library" list. I am sold on this one! Here goes nothing... Many many book reviews to come!
