Hello
I was wondering when you would reappear. Welcome back! What is your "slightly less ridiculous reading schedule" this year? How do you decide what to read? The list above ranges from fantasy, Peter Pan to lots of biography, fiction and non-fiction. How did you read 046. Anna Karenina by Lev Tolstoy 03/01/15 and 047. To Have and Have Not by Ernest Hemingway 03/01/15 in the same day???
This year I have also joined Club Read and discovered that some people plan what they are going to read in advance. In the late summer and fall of 2014 they make their reading list for 2015. It is the first time I came across this. I do know that some are open to other titles not on the list that are recommended by others but they return to the list I have a list of books I would like to read and some get read but I finish one book and look in my Kindle to see what I have that I would like to read next or go to Amazon.ca to my wish list or just look around for something interesting. I am sometimes influenced by recommendation. But no list, I don't plan when and what I will read it just happens!

Hello again Penny :)
After 600 books last year I'm more than happy to get back into the 250-300 range (this is the first year in a long time that I've finished more movies than books.) All my dates above represent the day a title was completed -- there is a brief but conspicuous gap between Tolstoy and Thackeray ;) Hemingway must have been my afternoon read that day.
Many moons ago, in my misguided youth, I began by following the Modern Library 20th century list (fit only to be burned.) I've also consulted the 1001 list from time to time but I've crossed out most of the pre-WWII fiction by this point. A lot of the odd bits and pieces crop up from recent Librivox uploads -- everything else just falls under my nose in the course of my perpetual literary investigations. I just try to avoid reading too much from the same person, time, place, and genre in short sequence.

Sorry I missed my regular posting rounds last month after a medium-sized move up the Hudson.
I do try to cast a fairly wide net; I've started to run out of my old mainstay cannonical novels so I'm mostly clearing out the unread book shelf and mixing in a lot of odds and ends. Sometimes I'm just looking to fill out a few genre categories, grab a quick read after a long book, or giving some obscure LibriVox discovery a shot (most of the left-field entries come from there.) Probably not as thoughtful a selection as in years past I'm afraid.
