40 books in 2010! 20 books in 2011! How many in 2012?
Finishing the last page of a nice book is so much rewarding, so I thought to read more since January 2010 instead of wasting my time in front of the PC or TV. I read whatever I think might be interesting. Fiction or Nonfiction. Each book opens a new horizon. With the books you can travel around the world. ..... I just want to do something useful for myself.
I read English and German language. The ranking is from 1 (=very bad) through 10 (=excellent).

1st book - "Stones into Schools" - Greg Mortenson - 9 points

A true hero! The "dirty dozen" are amazing people. More heroes! Great book to learn more about Afghanistan/Pakistan. I read Greg's first book "Three cups of tea" 2 years ago and loved it too. --- Greg Mortenson (*1957) is US citizen. It's a nonfiction book.
First published: 2009 in English language - I read the first American 2009 hardcover edition from Viking, Penguin Group (USA) - ISBN 978-0-670-02115-4
