Fall into Reading 2009

When I first set my Fall Reading Goals, I had been inspired by the Fall into Reading challenge, but didn't think I was ready to commit to a certain set of books. After a very exciting trip to a used bookstore on a recent trip, I've reconsidered and decided to make a list of the books I want to complete during the Fall. Since we're already a month into the season, I've already read the first two and am halfway done with the third. The rest are books that I own now, and have every intention of reading by December 20th. Wish me luck!

Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins **FINISHED
Guernesy Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows **FINISHED
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
Dear American Airlines by Jonathan Miles
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
A Map of Home by Randa Jarrar
Crazy as Chocolate by Elisabeth Hyde

I'll keep track of my progress each Monday. If you'd like to see what others are reading this Fall, head over to Callipidder Days.

I will continue to keep track of C's reading progress at Just Playin' Around.

The contest ends on Thursday, July 5th at midnight Eastern Time. The winner will be notified by e-mail. If they do not respond within 48 hours, a new winner will be drawn. Happy 4th of July!
