FV Reading Challenge 2012

**AmyBoz** · 01-07-2012, 09:28 AM

My students are all reading the Marked series. I keep meaning to pick them up and start them, but never quite get around to it. Maybe I'll try one of these next!

I finally got Heaven is Real out of the car and finished it. Enjoyable read you are smiling at the end.

Definitely not something I would have picked up myself (a friend gave it to me to read) but if it had been a Hallmark Movie I would have watched it and cried through the whole thing LOL

Happy Reading ALL!

I have decided to change my goal.
I do a lot of "heavy" reading and have
been thinking I need to diversify a little.

I was looking for a recipe book tonight
in the bookcase and ran into 8 YA classics
that I bought this summer at Walmart for $1.00
each. Since I have never read them, I thought
I would read them but then forgot them LOL

I also found 4 Janet Evanovich books, 1 Sue Grafton,
1 Patricia Cornwell and A. Lincoln by Ronald C. White
(actually, I found several more as well LOL)

So I am changing my goal to
4 books per month.

January:
Heaven is for Real Finished
Saint Edith Stein, A Spiritual Portrait (new choice, the other is a bit heavy)
The Secret Garden
Fearless Fourteen

February:
The Secret Holocaust Diaries
Peter Pan
Finger-licking Fifteen
The Road to Assisi

March:
Walk on Water
A. Lincoln
Sizziling Sixteen
The Little Princess

Ok, hopefully with some pre-planning, I can do this.

Oh, BTW, I put the first book into a sack and will
declutter most of them as I go along.

**EmilyD** · 01-11-2012, 03:16 PM

I read The Secret Garden last night.

Good story, junior version 2/4 for the month

**madhen** · 01-12-2012, 09:12 AM

Almost done with Full Dark No Stars. Probably be done by tonight. I have gotten into the very good habit of reading for a half hour or so before going to bed. I wanted to finish last night, because I only have 20 pages or so left, but I was getting too tired and the words were starting to blur!

**Jamielane** · 01-12-2012, 10:47 AM

Last night I finished She Drives me Crazy by Celia Rivenbark . Hilarious as usual.

**Darlene** · 01-12-2012, 01:58 PM

I finished Kitchen Boy by Sandford Phippen and am now reading New York to Dallas by JD Robb (my first library kindle book yahoo!) and Charlotte Figg Takes Over Paradise, by Joyce Magnin.
