Fall into Reading 2010

EDIT (11/10/10): I've taken two books off the list. (They are crossed out below.) I recently looked at both of those books, and neither seemed interesting. I have other books I would rather read first.




I just found out about this TODAY, which is so amazing because today is the day it starts. I feel amazed at myself for getting on Blogger this morning and seeing different posts called "Fall into Reading 2010" and checking them out.

After looking here for the official rules, I think this is the coolest idea! I immediately decided that I must do it. This challenge/giveaway is put on my Calapidder Days. For more info, look at the giveway entry rules and the Fall into Reading posting rules.

Now, on to the books! This is my goal for Fall 2010, from September 22 to December 20.

Books to finish (I'm ashamed I haven't gotten some of these done already.):

• You Were Made to Make a Difference by Max Lucado and Jenna Lucado Bishop with Natalie Gillespie
• Crazy Love by Francis Chan
• The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley
• Notes on Nursing by Florence Nightingale.

Books to read:

• All I Have to Give by Melody Carlson (see EDIT above)
• One Perfect Day by Lauraine Snelling (see EDIT above)
• My Son, the Savior by Melody Carlson
• The Christmas Box Collection by Richard Paul Evans

The reason for all the Christmas books is that, every year, I feel like I should read something Christmas-like and then end up remembering to read Christmas stories after Christmas is over. It's pitiful. So, hopefully I will be able to get through some. I don't feel like I've set the bar too high. I would love to be able to read more than this, but it just depends on my assigned reading from school. I'll tell you if I do on December 20.

I do wish it was a little more fall-ish on this first day of fall. I think the highs for where I live are somewhere in the 90's. Seriously! Hopefully fall weather will come soon, though.

As the challenge continues, you can see what I've finished and reviewed in the left-hand sidebar.
