Mrs. S is hosting a challenge to read as many books as possible during July.
Click on the button for more info.
She’s also written a meme to get us started:
1. Describe yourself in one sentence
I’m a wife, a mother to two wonderful teenage boys, and an avid book lover.
2. What book will you start the challenge with?
Undiscovered Country by Lin Enger
3. Where is your favourite place to read?
I like to read outside by the pool, in bed, and on my comfy leather couch.
4. What is your favourite book of all time?
Probably Jane Eyre and/or Persuasion
5. Remind us all of your challenge target
I’m going to say 10 because even though some months I’ve been reading over that, I’m going to be working full-time soon and won’t have as much time to read as I used to.
My books for the challenge (I’m going for 10):
- Undiscovered Country by Lin Enger (2008, 320 pp.)
- The Bible Salesman by Clyde Edgerton (2008, 256 pp.)
- The God of Animals by Aryn Kyle (2007, 336 pp.)
- The Photograph by Penelope Lively (2003, 231 pp.)
- What Was Lost by Catherine O’Flynn (2008 in the U.S.)
Some titles I’m thinking about:
- The White Mary
- The Poisonwood Bible
look at you go!! sometimes you read more than 10 a month!? I have never read that many, but I am shooting for 12 this month…I think I am crazy. I just finished my first one last night though
We’ll see…
I am a book lover, I read about 10 books a month. Some on tape, and some by the page. I just found you sight and would love to become involved and share book info. I am just not very good at the computer stuff. I hope someone can take pitty on me and point me in the right direction.
I love all kind of books and have always found my escape in great books with vivid charters and alot of dialog.
I am from Minnesota and the mother of 2. 16+ and 18. I have a wonderful husband who does not read, but supports my habit.
My favorite books of all time are the Outlander books and the Stephanie plumb books.
I am starting the challenge with Fourteen something by Janet Evanovich.
i love to read in my big chair.
I am going for 10 if books on tape count.
Hope some one sees this.
Sent you an email, Sally!
Good for you! 10 books is an excellent month for me.
