Book Blogger Hop & Follow Plus Weekly Update AND 2011 Blogging Goals


What are your new years book blogging resolutions?
1. Read at least 150 books with 50 of those being audio books.  So far in 2010 I've read 249 books with 78 of those being audiobooks. (I may get one more finished by tomorrow, if not it will count towards my 2011 goal). I'm really hoping to hit at least 200 in 2011 but I'm starting out low and will adjust my goal upwards if I can.
2. Continue to contact authors and set up book giveaways and interviews.  Host at least 4 new giveaways each week.
3. Redesign my blog.
4. Make Best I've Read 2011 even better than Best I've Read 2010.
5. Get through my pile of books to be reviewed or get them into the hands of other reviewers.
