I started this blog to encourage myself to read two books every week (hence the name). It is turning into a book club of sorts, where I talk about the books I read, sometimes in great detail, sprinkling in whatever the books make me think about (in other words, I do not always stay on topic). I am a happily-married mother of a toddler, a sociologist, and the proud member of a wonderful extended family located on both U.S. coasts (so I travel a bit). I read everything, but mostly non-fiction. I post reviews on completed books, and usually have several books going at the same time. I try to blog about one selection in great detail (usually a post for every chapter or so), and others that I discuss in less detail.

So far I have received very positive feedback (thanks, Mom!), and am encouraged to keep reading and blogging. If you want to follow along with a book as you are reading it, click on Books Read in 2010 or http://2booksaweek.com/books-read-in-2011/, or find the title of the book in the tag cloud on the homepage, and you can find all of the posts for each particular selection. I will try to alert you at the beginning of each post which chapters are being covered, so you can avoid spoilers.
