Reading Challenge


Katrina at Callapidder Days is hosting a reading challenge called Fall Into Reading 2007. I decided to participate because I have a lot of books I need to finish reading, and I'm hoping this will motivate me to finally get them checked off of my "To Read" list.

Without further ado, here are the books I hope to finish reading during this challenge. I'm keeping my list short, simply because I'm still adjusting to life as a first-year home educator.

Fiction:
-- The Thirteenth Tale, by Diane Setterfield. Fellow blogger Leigh Ann mailed me a copy of this book, so I guess I better read it, right Leigh Ann? ;-D
-- September, by Rosamunde Pilcher.

Nonfiction:
There are many books in this category that I need to finish or want to start. The two I'm determined to finish during this challenge are:
-- Mere Christianity, by C.S. Lewis, and
-- A Charlotte Mason Companion: Personal Reflections on The Gentle Art of Learning, by Karen Andreola.

So there's the list -- so far. I am so addicted to buying books that I'll probably end up adding to the list as I go along.

Sounds like a great list. I participated, too, to help me set a goal to get through some really wonderful non-fiction books that I can't seem to finish.

I haven't read 13th Tale yet either. I love your sidebar description. I'll have to check out your other blog.

I really, really liked The Thirteenth Tale. And Mere Christianity is always a good pick, a classic. Thanks so much for being part of the challenge -- enjoy your fall reading!
