Another challenge

TBR

A challenge to get me back to reading, as I have been dreadfully lazy on that matter last two years.

Pick 12 books - one for each month of 2007 - that you've been wanting to read (have been on your "To Be Read" list) for 6 months or longer, but haven't gotten around to.
Starting January 1, 2007, read one of these books from your list each month, ending December 31, 2007.
By the end of the year you should've knocked 12 books off of your TBR list!
And my list (in no particular order) - original names in parenthesis:
  1. Eclipse of the Crescent Moon (Egri csillagok) by Géza Gárdonyi
  2. Oikeusjuttu (Der Prozess) by Franz Kafka
  3. The Fall of the House of Usher and Other Writings by Edgar Allan Poe
  4. Sivuvaikutuksia (Side Effects) by Woody Allen
  5. Sarastus (L'àube, Editions du Seuil) by Elie Wiesel 23rd of April
  6. Otelo by Daniel Katz 13th of May
  7. Kannibaaligalaksi (The Cannibal Galaxy) by Cynthia Ozick 3rd of April
  8. Sinuhe egyptiläinen by Mika Waltari
  9. Karamazovin veljekset (Bratja Karamazovy) by Fedor Dostojevski
  10. Muistelmia kuolleesta talosta (Zapiski iz mertvago doma) - ' ' - 23rd of April
  11. Jazz (Jazz) by Toni Morrison 5th of April
  12. Orja (The Slave) by Isaac Bashevis Singer 17th of May


TAST

Haven't forgot that! I just need to get myself going with it, all those biscornus just are too tempting to be left alone, even for a day - or few hours.
