If a problem comes along, you must whip it!

I have a lofty goal. That goal is to read 100 books in one year. For those of you doing the math, that means I have roughly four days a book. With a little overlap, sure. Now me, I'm notorious for starting a book, seeing a squirrel or something, getting distracted and putting it down for a few weeks. Then I'll pick it up three months, weeks days later and finish it off. So this goal is more than a little lofty. Actually, it might be too big for my britches, so to speak.

That's why the first book I picked up was easy. Granted, I didn't know it was easy when I picked it up. I picked it up because It's Now A Major Motion Picture. And I have a girl crush soft spot for Ellen Page and roller derby looks badass, so I figured the book had to be awesome, right? Actually, I wasn't far off. I polished off Whip It by Shauna Cross in a day-and-a-half, which is well within my four day goal, and given that I'm ALSO doing NaNo this month (I'm an overachiever--okay, fine, I'm stupid) it was totally a blessing in disguise.

But don't be fooled because it was a quick read, kids. )
