Opinions of a Wolf

I decided I won’t make you guys wait as long as I originally said to find out what my 2012 project is going to be.  I made the reading list, the button, and created the page, so why not announce it now and get participation commitments going?

So!  The Opinions of a Wolf hosted 2012 reading project is…..*drum-roll*

Woo! *Applause*

The gist of it is, I am concerned and downright fed up with the state of health in America.  Congress just declared pizza a vegetable! It is time we took the power over our own health out of the hands of the government, society, the FDA, hospitals, and put it back where it belongs.  With us!  To this end, using my librarian and book blogger skills, I carefully selected 12 nonfiction titles to read addressing a variety of topics from how your diet can prevent and reverse heart disease to how the food industry manipulates science to how to avoid processed foods.  It’s a great list that I’m really excited to explore!!

The third Saturday of every month will be dedicated to a discussion (hosted by me) of the book of the month.  In addition, I will do my best to also review one healthy cookbook or fitness book each month, and I invite you to do so as well!

You’ve got a month to get yourself signed up, spread the word, and gather the first couple of books on the list.  You don’t have to have a blog to participate, but it would be awesome if you at least had a LibraryThing or GoodReads account to help create the buzz this information needs.

Just head on over to the dedicated Diet for a New America Reading Project 2012 page and leave a comment noting your intent to participate and a link to either your blog post announcing your participation or to your account on LibraryThing or GoodReads.

I’m super-excited for this project and hope you all are too!!
