So here is a list of the books I want to finish this year. I should note that I am going to try to borrow or check as many of these out as possible instead of buying them. That way I save money and dont own a bunch of books I may not even like. So keep me accountable! Check back to see if i have been marking them off and making any progress!

For one, I love the idea of having a book list to keep yourself accountable. I made a summer reading list last summer and my roommates totally made fun of me (I bet you can guess which ones!). Anyway, I also like that you are reading helpful family books before you even have children. I always feel weird reading those types of books when I am not even pregnant, but I do it anyway because I want to be prepared. Good to know there is another geek out there with me!
