Reading Just for the Love of it….
I’m participating in my first book challenge. If you know anything about me, you’re probably saying, ???? This one from A Novel Menagerie actually sounds like a challenge made in heaven. Not only are there no deadlines, it has this “rule” that really caught my attention: “List is just for me… I can change it however I want to.” I also appreciate the concept :”Just for the Love of It.” Thank you Sheri, for just the gentle push I need to get reading in 2009. Here is my list (FOR NOW).:
People of the Book
Geraldine Brooks
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle
Bridge of Sighs
Richard Russo
Wise Children
Angela Carter
Gods Behaving Badly
Marie Phillips
When Will There Be Good News?
Kate Atkinson
Acedia and Me: A Marriage, Monks and a Writer’s Life
Kathleen Norris
Unaccustomed Earth
Jhumpa Lahiri
I really liked Unaccustomed Earth, Edgar Sawtelle and LOVED Gods Behaving Badly. Those are good ones for your list. Be warned, Edgar Sawtelle takes a while to read…it’s really long!
Good luck! I can’t wait to read your reviews!
