We're embarking on a journey together, and when the road ends, we won't be quite the same. The people we've met will have enriched our lives, and the books we've read, well, they'll have transformed us.
Here's the 5 year plan. Let's read together. Let's open books, visit libraries, light up our Kindles, and take a journey together. Over the next 5 years, let's read modern novels, funny essays, ancient manuscripts, medieval musings, inspirational scribblings...let's read, and live, and grow together.
After 5 years, we'll look back proudly at the 100 books we've read together, the 100 places we've traveled (even if only in our imaginations), and the thousands of people we've encountered through our reads.
'What then?' you five year readers ask. 'What shall we do then?' Well, then we shall compose another 5 year reading plan!
Let the pages turn, and the stories unfold. Our 5 year reading plan begins now!
seriously. I love it. What's the first book? And how long will we spend reading each book? I'm going to an event in October themed after Jane Austin. I've never read any of her books. I'd be willing to give it a try if anyone else is!
ReplyDeleteFirst book is Tina Fey's "Bossypants"! The goal is 1-2 books per month. I say bring on the Jane Austin!
