    Hi Elizabeth
    A good friend told me about your blog. I think it is a wonderful goal that you have set for yourself. I read very slowly so, if you manage to read as many books as you hope to, my fedora is off to you. Our taste in literature is a little different but it is far better to read a little than sit in front of the television or computer or endlessly text on your cellphone, alot. All the best.
