At the beginning of the year I stated that one of my resolutions was to read less than I did last year. Well, here we are halfway through the year and I hereby publicly admit a complete failure to keep to that resolution. In fact, I'm slightly ahead of last year's tally. As of yesterday, June 30, I've read 77 books so far this year.
My current read looks like it will be fascinating. It's called "Grant and Twain" and is the story of the friendship between Mark Twain and Ulysses Grant at the end of Grant's life. I didn't know they were friends and I didn't know that Twain played a big role in convincing Grant that he should write his memoirs. I guess Grant's memoirs will be next on my reading list.
