Spring Reading Thing 2008

Filed under: Books — bookcrazyblog @ 7:45 pm

Katrina, over at Callapidder Days, hosts a reading challenge every season. I’ve joined the challenge twice and failed the challenge twice also. :) This time, I’m hoping I’ll be able to read everything that’s on my list.

Here goes:

FICTION:

1. Baby Proof by Emily Giffin – Picked up this book last week. I’ve been wanting to read this for a long time so I took advantage of the sale over at Bestsellers, the bookstore near my office. Looks like a light read so I’m hoping to finish this quickly.

2. Quaker Summer by Lisa Samson - I finally got myself a copy! I’ve been seeing this book on other people’s lists the past two reading challenges
and have heard great things about it. Can’t wait to read.

3. A Place Called Here by Cecelia Ahern - Ahern is one of my favorite chick lit authors. I thoroughly enjoyed PS I Love You and If You Could See Me
Now. This one’s plot looks promising.

4. The Fiction Class by Susan Breen -  The only book on my list that I don’t yet own a copy of. Borrowing a copy from my friend Varsha. Seems like a good read.

5. Piercing the Darkness by Frank Peretti – One of the books I’ve left unfinished that I’m determined to finish in the next two months.

6. Twilight by Stephanie Meyer – Halfway done with this one. It’s easy to read so I predict I’ll be done sometime in the next few days.

NON-FICTION

1. The Confident Woman by Joyce Meyer - Currently reading this one. Not jumping up and down yet but so far so good.

2. In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day by Mark Batterson - Started reading the first few chapters. It is SO good. I would recommend it to people who need fresh fire in
their lives. Will certainly make you get up and do something!

3. The Seven Pillars of Health by Don and Mary Colbert – I’m on the second section of this book and let me tell you, it’s THE book to read if you want to get healthy. Based on biblical principles, practical, and well researched book.

4. If You Want to Walk on Water, You’ve Gotta Get Out of the Boat by John Ortberg - One of my favorite authors. I’ve read the first few chapters. Inspiring and encouraging.

I would want to add a few more but this looks like all I can manage for now.  If I get to finish two in the next week. I’ll probabaly be able to add a few more titles.

What are YOU reading? Would love to hear from you.
