Long time no see

I understand that my mother is most probably the only person reading this blog, but I nevertheless feel guilty about leaving it untended.  Thus I have decided to give my blog a facelift and start writing posts again, because I realise looking back at my previous posts that they were pretty fun to write.  For the record, I actually have read books since April of last year, which is when I wrote my last post.  I look forward to writing about a few of the books I have read in the past year.  I plan to subsequently do a massive amount of reading this summer, hopefully documenting my progress along the way.
