Can you believe it's the last day of spring? I can since it's been 90+ degrees every day for the past couple weeks. I can't imagine what July and August are going to be like this year! With the end of spring comes the end of the Spring Reading Thing 2010, which was hosted by Katrina at Callapidder Days. I had set out to read 9 books for this challenge, knowing I'd probably read more than that but not wanting to overextend myself just in case!
I finished all of the books on my Spring Reading Thing list! I just finished the last one on Friday night. Here are the books that were on my original list, with links to the reviews I've written so far:

I'm looking forward to Katrina's Fall Into Reading challenge that starts on the first day of fall, but in the meantime, I'm starting my own Summer Reading Challenge to fill the gap. You can read about it here. And if you're interested in joining me, come back tomorrow and sign up!
Great job on your spring reading! Sixteen books is a great accomplishment. Hope you enjoy your summer reading, too!
ReplyDeleteI passed up the Last Christian but now I'm sorry I did after reading everyone's great reviews on it. You did a great job with your challenge.
ReplyDeleteI am wanting to read "I am Hutterite". Are you enjoying it? I have some very good Hutterite friends and know quite a few who have left their colonies.
You did excellent on this challenge! Enjoy your summer.
