See ScottYilek's lists.








This is a List.


DanFr: You read a Owen Meany? I thought that book was great. I'm very intrigued by the concept of destiny. (added at 10:02:21 PM on 01/27/06)


ddjiii: My goodness, you are prolific. I have read thus far some 200 pages of "Gotham" - I look forward to rating it sometime in May. (added at 10:27:15 AM on 01/28/06)


ScottYilek: Yeah, i've been reading a lot.  At least an hour every day since the beginning of the year.  To read more has kind of been my unspoken new year's resolution. (added at 03:21:33 PM on 01/28/06)


MikeCa: I like this idea Scott, of keeping a list of everything you read in a year, prepare to be mimic'd (added at 02:15:23 PM on 02/11/06)


Icarus: Thanks for doing this Scott. Like Mike, I have copied you, and I'm glad I have. Keeping the list and a newfound desire to read more has caused me to keep a pretty good pace through the first quarter of this year. And my brother-in-law just told me he was going to let me borrow Catch 22, so I'll be looking forward to checking that out soon. (added at 01:51:20 PM on 03/24/06)


ScottYilek: Sadly I've been slowing down lately.  I've gotten really busy with other things and reading has had to take a backseat.  I still hope to hit my goal of 80 books for the year, though I've been cheating a little bit and reading shorter books. (added at 11:01:27 PM on 10/09/06)


ScottYilek: I'm gonna make it, i'm gonna make it... (added at 12:11:21 PM on 12/09/06)
