Katrina, at Callapidder Days has started her "Spring Reading Thing" that is intended to kick start you into getting back into reading!
I read...usually...I just haven't finished a book since January. I've started two and I'm in the middle of both of them, but I have yet finished them. So, here, in front of God, Country and Fellow Bloggers, I give you...THE LIST.
1. Finish: The Glass Castle
2. Finish: Babyproofing your Marriage
3. Read: My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
4. Read: The Happiest Toddler on the Block
5. Read: Good Kids, Bad Habits
I own all of these books, except one, (#4) so I have no excuse. I must read. I must read. I must read. And I must read all of these by June 21st! Wish me luck!
Cool. I did own #4, but just sold it on ebay. I didn't think it was very good. As a matter of fact, I didn't even read the whole thing. Pick something else!
#3 is awesome :)
I need to get #2

I had seen this at Callapidder Days and was thinking of doing on my site, too. Alright now, how long have you been reading Glass Castle? I guess it's not a library book or it would have been due back a while ago. See, I couldn't get into it either and moved on to another book, but my mom loved it.
You'll have to let me know what you think of My Sister's Keeper. SO.GOOD! Also, I heard Jodi Picoult's latest book, Nineteen Minutes, is a page-turner. I already have a hold on it at the library.
Happy Reading!

I so have no idea what's even in print anymore so I'm going to have to take a look at all the books on your list. I love that your list is SHORT!!

You can do it!! Good for you for committing to getting through your list. I read My Sister's Keeper last fall - good book. Thanks for joining the challenge. Enjoy your reading!

Great list! I'll have to check out Babyproofing Your Marriage in a few years ;) You'll have to let me know how My Sister's Keeper & The Glass Castle are. Happy Reading! =)

I'm in the middle of Babyproofing Your Marriage and I must say I LOVE it! I find myself nodding and saying "YES" out loud so much that my husband is getting curious about it. I've already told him he has to read it once I'm done. A MUST for new parents.
