The Month in Books - January 2009

At the start of 2009, I set a goal to read 30,000 pages by year's end. I am measuring progress in pages, rather than titles, to avoid last year's bias toward shorter books. Here's what I read in January:

  1. Bush's Law - Eric Lichtblau (review)
  2. Standard Operating Procedure - Philip Gourevitch (review)
  3. Ironweed - William Kennedy (review)
  4. Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte (review)
  5. Stalin - Simon Sebag Montefiore (review)
  6. The People's Act of Love - James Meek (review)
  7. The Peloponnesian War - Donald Kagan (review)
  8. FDR - Jean Edward Smith (review)
  9. John Marshall - Jean Edward Smith (review)

Pages Read: 3,972
Year-to-Date: 3,972
