Happy New Year, everybody!

We made it, it is 2010! I am super excited to have 2009 over and done with, and I am looking forward to a big year.

Plus, today is DAY 1 of my 1001 days! And so far the only one I can update on is...

38. Read 52 books in 2010 (1/52)

I finished one book today, a romance novel by Michele Hauf called Kiss Me Deadly. It was quite fun! I had never read a romance novel before, since I wrote them off as being smutty and predictable. But smutty and predictable are two of the best parts of the book, so I enjoyed it.

Good luck to me and everybody in the next 1001 days!

Smutty can be fun, sometimes. :D

Good luck with the rest of your tasks!

Yay, Happy New Year!
Way to go getting started on your list. And yeah, a nice smutty, fluffy romance can be fun time to time. I'm guilty of reading them! LOL.
