What Can I Say… I Like To Read

I like to read and I read a lot since I have a large amount of time where nothing is happening in Uganda.  Thankfully, people here in Fort Portal and the West like to read and want to learn to read so there are a lot of books around. Here is a list of books I have read so far (I will continue to update as the months go on) since arriving in June of 2014. Some have the dates I finished reading them – I’ve been working on reading one book a week. 

My goal is to read over 200 books by the time I leave in 2016. Only 178 left!
