Remember how back in elementary school, we all had to write book reports. I never thought those were very useful since most everybody just cheated in writing them (ok, I confess that I used Cliffs Notes a couple of times). I figure that as part of my blogging, I should do a “book report” of each book before I move it from the Current to the Recent section of my Now Reading list in the sidebar…well, maybe just those non-fiction books that warrant some reflection. The fiction books are just for fun and personal enjoyment .

This way, I will remember or at least have a record of what I have read, and might even help me to get more out of reading each book than just finishing it end to end (note to self, that’s called “processing”).
