52

i have an unwritten goal to read 52 books this year...


because i struggle with goal keeping, i didn't really want to be too forthright with this goal.

but, since i am still going strong 4 months in, the burden of possible failure has lifted and i
am confident i will achieve my goal!! hey, no body likes to look like a failure, let alone be one!

the hiding place
favia de luce, bird at the bottom of the pie
martha washington
traveling with pomegrantes
what on earth have i done?

BFG
the twits
marvelous medicine
the rent collector
invention of wings

esio trot
orphan train
my story: elizabeth smart
a heart like his
whistling past the graveyard
where the red fern grows
pillage
the grapes of wrath
the girl with the pearl earring
my name is mary sutter
charlottes web
floors
the buddha in the attic
remarkable creatures
demi-god diaries
1st book of nephi(does that count...i'm working on the entire BOM)


currently reading:  happiness project, matilda

up next:  the last runaway, monuments men, merchants of venice, harry potter

sometimes i wish i could read faster, there is much out there to read!! the possibilities are endless! i don't even need to ask for ideas anymore.

there is a handful of books i did start and not finish, mostly because they were not interesting to me or the writing was just distasteful.

 i don' really have any rules about what to read, except, i am trying to challenge myself to try out different genre. i really do not enjoy sci-fi or fantasy, or even young adult typically, hence the percy jackson book, harry potter, pillage, floors and a few young adult/older children's chapter books.  i LOVE historical fiction/non-fiction and books that inspire me.

happy reading to me!
