I love this goal too.  Books are so powerful and have changed my perspective, my thinking and literally, my life.  I've heard that only twenty minutes a day in a good book can make a huge difference.  Which ones are on your list?

Yeah, through all my life I read many different kind of books and tho now I kinda give this time to watching movies, but I still think, that there is nothing, that can replace book reading :). Well, for now my biggest book aim is Darwins Origin of Species... Hm... and anything that Sigmund Freud has written :P... But if it isn't so science oriented, than it would be Umberto Eco Pendullum of Foucault. Unfortunately, most of the books, that I read now are related to my studies, so not much time left for pleasure :). Though, I like 'a must' literature it's still not the same. By the way, while you like reading, maybe you know goodreads.com, I just discovered it and plan on completing it with my book lists, so if you are interested we could shere our lists :). By the way, what books do you like? :)

Thanks so much for the tip - I'll check out goodreads.com.  Maybe you've read some Carl Sagan?  I really enjoyed 'Cosmos' and 'Billions and Billions.'  I believe Cosmos was even made into a documentary series.  I enjoy all kinds though.  The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini were both incredible, but pretty heavy reading.
